Hague rules Netherlands ‘liable’ for Srebrenica massacre victims The Hague has ruled that the Netherlands was accountable or the deaths of over 300 victims of the Srebrenica massacre in 1995. The hearing came as families of the victims accuse the Dutch government accusing its UN peacekeepers of failing to protect their relatives. The UN protected the Muslim enclave until July 11, 1995 when it was overrun by ethnic Serb forces. Some 8,000 Muslim men and boys were slaughtered by ethnic Serb troops in 1995. The UN’s highest International Court of Justice earlier ruled that the Srebrenica slaughter was genocide. Serb forces commander Ratko Mladic is currently on trial on genocide and war crimes.
