DID YOU KNOW?  -- Three years before the 1995 Srebrenica Genocide, Serbs torched Bosniak villages and killed at least 3,166 Bosniaks around Srebrenica. In 1993, the UN described the besieged situation in Srebrenica as a "slow-motion process of genocide." In July 1995, Serbs forcibly expelled 25,000 Bosniaks, brutally raped many women and girls, and systematically killed 8,000+ men and boys (DNA confirmed).

PHOTO: A wounded Bosniak child lays in the snow next to an overloaded UNHCR truck March 31, 1993 during evacuation from besieged Srebrenica as part of an agreement between Serbs, Bosniaks and the commander of UN peace keeping forces in Bosnia. In less than 2 weeks later -- on 12 April 1993, Serbs committed the the massacre known as the  Srebrenica Children Massacre in which 200 Bosniak refugees (like the ones depicted on this photo) were killed by the Serb shelling of the elementary school's playground in Srebrenica.
