Ramiz Nukic searching from the genocide in Srebrenica.

Ramiz Nukic walks through through the hill above his house, in the village of Kamenice, around 30 minutes drive from Srebrenica. He is a farmer and is also looking for human remains. There’s rarely a day in which Nukic does not find the remains of at least one murdered boy or man. He himself is responsible for finding the remains of about 250 people who were murdered during the Genocide in Srebrenica.

Coffins that are buried during the burial of the dead during the commemoration at Potocari memorial are stored inside one of the warehouses at the former car battery factory, formerly UN HQ during the war in Bosnia. It allows family and friends to come and share one last moment with the remains before the burial which take place on July 11th. Potocari, July 10th, 2015.

Mars Mira- Peace March 2015

The Peace March that takes place between Nzuk and Potocari follows the route the men, boys and some women took when they escaped through the woods from Srebrenica trying to reach the safe area of Tuzla. It is around 110 km long and a really physical and psychological challenge. It is hot in Bosnia in July- these men have just reached Liplje and enjoy a well deserved shower provided by the Bosnian army!
Shower- Mars Mira/ Peace March style!
