The Levrenica massacre is considered the worst atrocities in Europe since World War II. In July 1995 during the Bosnian Civil War, Serbian militia broke into Srebrenica, a refugee residential area declared safe by the United Nations, killing 8,000 Bosnian Muslim adult men and boys.
This is the only case in the Bosnian civil war that the United Nations International Court of Justice defined as a mass murder. Bosnia has been searching the remains of the people who were killed in Srebrenica after the civil war, but about 1,000 people have yet to identify them.
