"30,000 Muslims from across Bosnia have gathered to remember the 1995 Srebrenica massacre and bury the remains of more than 300 newly identified victims. The funeral ceremony for the 308 Muslims, who were among 8,000 killed in Europe's worst atrocity since World War II, was held at a memorial site just outside the eastern town.

The remains of the victims, aged between 15 and 84, were exhumed from mass graves after the end of Bosnia's 1992-1995 war and identified by DNA analysis.

"It was so hard when they informed me that my father has been identified,"Vanesa Mehmedovic, who is to bury her father Mevludin, said. "However, since he is not with us in a way, I'm glad that his soul will finally find peace," she said."
