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 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 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 ALISPAHI ARMIN AVDIJA 1203979183129 12 03 1979 532 ALISPAHI AZMIR ALIJA 210978183136 02 10 1978 533 ALISPAHI 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 MUHI NESIB HASAN 00 00 1984 7594 SMAJLOVI FAHRUDIN JUSUF 01 01 1983 2775 HASANOVI REMZUDIN HASIB 101982000000 01 01 1982 4469 MALAGI HARIS IBRAHIM 00 00 1982 and 1188 BO NJAKOVI 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
