Thousands gathered in Srebrenica on July 11 to mark the 31st anniversary of the 1995 genocide, during which more than 8,000 Bosnian Muslim men and boys were killed. Ten newly identified victims were buried at the Srebrenica-Potocari Memorial Center, and a peace march took place before the ceremony. Bosnian Presidency Chairman Denis Bećirović emphasized that remembering the victims is essential for stability, while Dutch ambassador Henk van den Dool highlighted education as a means to prevent future atrocities. More than 1,000 people remain missing from the genocide, which is regarded as the worst European atrocity since World War II. Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and London Mayor Sadiq Khan have issued statements condemning the crime and calling for action against dehumanisation and hatred. The anniversary also prompted comparisons to other contemporary conflicts, including Israel's war in Gaza, with human rights advocates noting the lack of accountability for alleged perpetrators.
