Mass burial for newly-indentified Srebrenica victims

A mass funeral of 409 newly-identified victims of the Srebrenica massacre has been held in Potocari.

The burials mark the 18th anniversary of the atrocity in which 8000 Bosnian Muslims were killed by Bosnian Serb forces over five days.

On Thursday, a genocide charge against former Bosnian Serb leader Radovan Karadzic was reinstated at the UN Yugoslav war crimes tribunal in The Hague.
