Serbs killed in eastern Bosnia on Christmas Day remembered
49 of them were killed as the wartime Army of the Republic of Bosnia-Herzegovina attacked from the direction of Srebrenica on January 7, 1993 - Orthodox Christmas Day.Seven more civilians disappeared on that day, five of which are still listed as missing.
The village was pillaged, and 688 Serb houses set on fire. Naser Oric, a Muslim (Bosniak) wartime commander in the area, was indicted by the Hague Tribunal for war crimes committed in Kravica and the vicinity of Srebrenica during the 1992-95 war in Bosnia-Herzegovina. He was acquitted in July 2008.
The Court of Bosnia-Herzegovina is now conducting proceedings against Oric on charges of murder of three Serb prisoners in the area of Srebrenica.
