U.N. Inspects Site of Possible Mass Burial

An international forensic team opened a suspected mass grave near the town of Zvornik, where Bosnian Serbs are believed to have reburied Muslim bodies to try to hide them, U.N. officials said. The exhumation by the U.N. war crimes tribunal is expected to yield the bodies of men and boys killed when Bosnian Serb gunmen overran the Muslim enclave of Srebrenica in July 1995. The 7,000 killings at Srebrenica--the single deadliest atrocity in Europe since World War II--are the basis for one of two genocide indictments against Radovan Karadzic, the Bosnian Serbs’ wartime president, and his military commander, retired Gen. Ratko Mladic.
