Bosnians unearth more bodies

Published September 25, 2008

KAMENICA (Bosnia), Sept 24: Forensic experts said on Wednesday they had unearthed the remains of 362 Muslim victims of the 1995 Srebrenica massacre from a mass grave in eastern Bosnia.

It was the 10th mass grave found in the village of Kamenica, in an area labelled “Death Valley”, that contained the remains of many of about 8,000 Muslim men and boys killed by Bosnian Serb forces as they fled Srebrenica in July 1995.

Murat Hurtic of the regional commission for missing persons said documents recovered at the site showed the victims were from Srebrenica, the eastern enclave that was under United Nations protection when it was overrun by Bosnian Serb forces during the 1992-95 war.
