Bosnian Muslims carry body caskets of their relatives killed during Srebrenica 1995 massacre as they prepare for mass burial at a memorial cemetery in the village of Potocari near the eastern Bosnian town of Srebrenica on July 11, 2013.

More than 15,000 people travelled to Potocari, near Srebrenica to attend the mass funeral of victims whose remains were found in mass graves and only identified almost two decades after the 1995 killing.
