[:en]12 July 2014: Thousands of family members and friends paid their respects today to 175 newly identified victims of the 1995 Fall of Srebrenica, the only recognized genocide on European soil since WWII. Almost 7,000 persons out of around 8,100 missing from July 1995 have been scientifically identified with ICMP’s assistance.
„ICMP today feels the pain of the families who are burying their loved ones in Potocari. Over the years ICMP has sought to help families of the missing and local Bosnian institutions, including the Missing Persons Institute, the BiH Prosecutor’s Office and Court and other local agencies, in the extremely difficult task of locating and identifying missing persons from the conflicts of the 1990s in the former Yugoslavia,“ said ICMP Director General Kathryne Bomberger. „We hope to continue to assist in locating the approximately 9,000 persons still missing from the BIH conflict, including the 1,000 persons still missing from Srebrenica.“
„We hope that these efforts will serve as a deterrent to future atrocities“, said Kathryne Bomberger, ICMP Director General, speaking at a commemorative event in Srebrenica.
Over 40,000 persons were considered missing in the Western Balkans following the armed conflicts, of which some 30,000 in Bosnia and Herzegovina. With ICMP’s assistance governments of the region have succeeded in accounting for more than 17,500 persons, of which 14,500 are relevant to BiH.
ICMP is an international organization based in Sarajevo and established to support the Dayton Peace Agreement. ICMP is today actively involved in helping governments and other institutions in the Western Balkans and other parts of the world to address social and political issues related to missing persons and establish effective identification systems in the wake of conflict or natural disaster.[:bs]

Hiljade članova porodica i prijatelja danas su ispratili 175 identifikovanih žrtava pada Srebrenice 1995. godine, jedinog priznatog genocida na tlu Evrope poslije Drugog svjetskog rata. Skoro 7.000 od 8.100 nestalih u julu 1995. godine je identificirano uz pomoć ICMP-a.
„ICMP danas saosjeća sa bolom porodica koje ukopavaju svoje najmilije u Potočarima. Dugi niz godina ICMP pomaže porodicama nestalih i domaćim bh. institucijama, uključujući Institut za nestale osobe, Tužilaštvo i Sud BiH te druge domaće institucije u regionu, u ovom izuzetno teškom zadatku da pronađu i identificiraju osobe nestale u oružanim sukobima, širom bivše Jugoslavije“, poručila je generalna direktorica ICMP-a, Kathryne Bomberger. „Nadamo se da ćemo nastaviti pružiti pomoć kako bi se pronašlo još 9.000 nestalih osoba u BiH, uključujući oko 1.000 nestalih iz Srebrenice“.
„Također se nadamo da će rezultati ovog rada odvratiti pokušaje sličnih zločina u budućnosti“, izjavila je Kathryne Bomberger, generalna direktorica ICMP-a, na komemorativnom događaju u Srebrenici danas.
Preko 40.000 osoba je smatrano nestalim na Zapadnom Balkanu po okončanju sukoba 1990-tih godina, od čega oko 30.000 u Bosni i Hercegovini. ICMP je vladama u ovom regionu pomogao da pronađu i identifikuju 17.500 osoba, od čega je ICMP u BIH putem DNK identifikovao oko 14.500 osoba.
ICMP je međunarodna organizacija sa sjedištem u Sarajevu, osnovana kao podrška Dejtonskom mirovnom sporazumu. ICMP je danas aktivno uključen u pomaganje vladama i drugim institucijama na Zapadnom Balkanu i ostatku svijeta u rješavanju društvenih i političkih pitanja vezanih za nestale osobe i pomaže im u uspostavi efikasnih sistema za identifikaciju osoba nestalih u oružanim sukobima i prirodnim nesrećama.[:ar][:es][:]
