A day prior to the mass burial of 30 more Srebrenica genocide victims at the Potocari Memorial Centre, organisers symbolically released a flock of peace pigeons, in memory of the victims.

The performance took place as the last stage of the Peace of March with thousands of participants is underway.

The remains of another 30 victims will be buried this week at the Potocari Memorial Centre, with the youngest victim aged 15 at the time of the death and other two juvenile victims aged 16 and 17.

Over 8,000 persons were killed in the genocide, mainly men and boys. To date, the remains of 6,652 have been buried at the Potocari memorial. The remains of 237 have been buried elsewhere according to their families’ wishes.

For the Srebrenica genocide, the Hague war crimes tribunal sentenced to life former Bosnian Serb political and military leaders Radovan Karadzic and Ratko Mladic.
