Thousands are returning to Bosnia on 11 July...to again honor the victims of the 1995 Srebrenica massacre.
This year...613 newly identified victims of the massacre...will be buried.
The ceremony will be especially significant because of the recent capture of Bosnian Serb commander Ratko Mladic, accused of ordering the execution of 8,000 Muslim men and boys.
But not all residents are happy about the ceremonies.
Srebrenica, pop 4,000, is still ethnically divided between Serbs and Muslims.
AND: A Dutch appeals court ruled that Dutch troops were to blame for deaths of 3 Bosnia Muslims (Bosniaks) in Srebrenica in 1995.
The court ordered the government to pay unspecified compensation to the dead men's relatives.
