On July 11, 1995, Bosnian Serb forces captured the predominantly-Muslim town of Srebrenica, which had been designated a "safe zone" protected by Dutch NATO peacekeepers. In the days that followed, the Serb army and militias separated men from women and children, taking the men away in buses and killing some 7,000 in mass-executions or ambushes.
