× Bosnian Serb secessionist leader Milorad Dodik addresses supporters during the "Srpska Is Calling You" rally, in Banja Luka on April 18, 2024. Bosnian Serbs protested on April 18, 2024, in Banja Luka against a potential UN resolution declaring July 11 an international day to remember the Srebrenica genocide. Bosnian Serb forces captured Srebrenica -- a UN-protected enclave at the time -- on July 11, 1995, a few months before Bosnia's inter-ethnic war ended. In the following days they summarily killed some 8,000 Bosnian Muslim men and boys from the eastern town. Under a settlement to end the war, Bosnia was divided into two semi-autonomous zones, one run by Bosnians and Croats, and another by Serbs, with Banja Luka as its capital. Dodik, president of the Serbian entity, has been demanding even greater autonomy. (Photo by ELVIS BARUKCIC / AFP)
