== Child victims of the Srebrenica Massacre == 

 This is a copy of a post I made at the Srebrenica article, after a reference to "many children" being among the victims at Srebrenica was removed.  I noted that a discussion of the issue might be more appropriate here. 

 In 1997 Amnesty International noted that more than 100 minors were still missing, including  
 Hazim Hasanovic (born 1978), Suad Suljic (born 1978), Edin Ahmetovic (born 1977) and Semir Ahmetovic (born 1979), Jasmin Zukic (born 1978), Senad Zukic (born 1980), Muharem Mujic (born 1980), Sifet Mehanovic (born 1978).  (AI Index: EUR 63/026/1997 - 23 October 1997) http://news.amnesty.org/library/Index/ENGEUR630261997?open&of;=ENG-BIH 

  
 The videotape given by Natasa Kandic to the Serbian war crimes investigator and the ICTY provides visual evidence of the murder of chidren at Srebrenica. 
 According to Tim Judah and Daniel Sunter's article in The Observer at http://observer.guardian.co.uk/international/story/0,6903,1499516,00.html four of the six Bosniaks taken off the coach at Trnovo and assasinated were under 18. 

  
 Three consecutive names among the FCMP's listed 8373 names of the dead and missing are the children 

 531 ALISPAHIĆ ARMIN AVDIJA 1203979183129 12.03.1979 

 532 ALISPAHIĆ AZMIR ALIJA 210978183136 02.10.1978 

 533 ALISPAHIĆ BEHADIL ADIL 19.05.1979

 Azmir Alispahic was one of those killed on the Kandic videotape.  The horror experienced by Nura Alispahic and her daughter Magbula as they watched the tape of their son and brother Azmir being killed has been widely reported. 

 I've seen reference to 12- and 13-year-olds being among the victims.  The FCMP list names 

 5217 MUHIĆ NESIB HASAN 00.00.1984 

 7594 SMAJLOVIĆ FAHRUDIN JUSUF 01.01.1983 

 2775 HASANOVIĆ REMZUDIN HASIB 101982000000 01.01.1982 

 4469 MALAGIĆ HARIS IBRAHIM 00/00/1982 

 and 

 1188 BOŠNJAKOVIĆ AMER MEHO 1109982000000 11.09.1982 

  
 The last named was two months past his fourteenth birthday.  The other four don't have accurate birth dates and presumably for whatever reason their disappearance was reported by someone other than immediate family. 

  
 Of course there are plenty of slightly older names on the list.  There are 16 dates of birth in 1981 and 53 dates of birth in 1980. 

  
 So, there were many children among the victims.
