In July 1995, a genocidal massacre took place in the Bosnian town of Srebrenica. More than 8,000 Bosnian Muslims were murdered by the Army of Republika Srpska (the Bosnian Serb Republic) led by General Ratko Mladic. The massacre at Srebrenica was one of the most horrific events of the war in the former Balkan States. It remains the single largest mass murder in Europe since World War Two.
The Potocari Old Battery Factory, which was the center of the genocide in Srebrenica, is one of the main areas where Bosniaks took refuge during the siege of the city but were killed by Serbian forces, after being handed over by UN soldiers.
The factory, which has survived almost in its original form, had decays and physical deformations on the roof covering, especially due to rain and snow waters.
