MUP RS-a zabranio je mirnu šetnju povodom Dana bijelih traka, ali su organizatori pozvali na mirno okupljanje koje je dozvoljeno. Na pojedinim prijedorskim stanovima danas su, u znak sjećanja na 31. maj 1992. godine, istaknute bijele plahte.@BIRN_BiH @EnesHodzic6 pic.twitter.com/1KUMkpoXSW

The Day of White Ribbons marks the memory of 3,176 killed Prijedor civilians.
On May 31, 1992, the local Bosnian Serb government ordered all non-Serbs in the Prijedor area to mark their houses and homes with white sheets and to wear white ribbons on their arms so as to distinguish them from Serbs.
This was an introduction to the ethnic cleansing of the non-Serb population in the Prijedor area. During the next three and a half years, 3,176 people were killed in and around Prijedor. Tens of thousands of people were sent to concentration camps (Omarska, Trnopolje and Keraterm), where they were subjected to mass executions, rape, various forms of torture, as well as crimes against humanity. Among those killed in Prijedor were 102 children under the age of 18.
