Remembering Srebrenica organised a commemorative event on Wednesday 8 July at the Welsh Assembly Building, in Cardiff – one of three official commemoration events in the UK including Westminster Abbey, in London and St Giles’ Cathedral, in Edinburgh. Some 120 people from across communities in Wales gathered to listen to Mother Nura Begović and survivor Nedžad Avdić speak about their moving and harrowing experiences of the genocide.
Nearly 25 years on, the capital of Bosnia and Herzegovina is undergoing a radical transformation and boasts modern glass shopping centres, boutique hotels and a magical old town. Excellent guide to #Sarajevo in @Independent
