LOOKING FOR KHADIJA
20 years after the Srebrenica’s
genocide, Munira still digs the
earth bare-handed to recover
the bones of his son, killed du-
ring the massacre. Hajra found
a skull and ever since she is
convinced it belongs to his son.
These are some of the stories of
Srebrenica’s Muslim mothers.
Not even landmines frighten
them. Although over two deca-
des have gone by, they will ne-
ver cease to suffer. Finding even
the smallest trace of their loved
ones is the only way for these
mothers to heal their pain.
