Srebrenica

I recently discovered this site. It exists to commemorate the massacre of approximately 8,000 Muslim men and boys, and the torture, rape, and killing of many women and children, which occurred from July 12 through July 18 1995, in and near the UN declared "safe area" of Srebrenica. The massacre was carried out after the commander of the UNPROFOR (United Nations Protection Force), General Bertrand Janvier, refused to carry out UNPROFOR's mandate to defend the Safe Area and handed it over to Serbian army General Ratko Mladic.
