The UN High Commission for Human Rights, with funding from the Finnish and Danish governments, is beginning to investigate the killings that took place around Srebrenica in July 1995. They will turn whatever evidence they find over to the UN War Crimes Commission at The Hague.
Finnish Foreign Minister Tarja Halonen travelled on Tuesday (26/6) with a Finnish forensic team, IFOR soldiers and a UN representative to a site about fifteen kilometers outside Srebrenica.
