Yesterday around 4 pm, a group of some 200 women from
Srebrenica, who are accommodated in the primary school in Sicko
Brdo, blocked the main crossroads outside Tuzla, demanding help in
the search for their missing family members and better living
conditions. The women also stopped a local bus travelling between
Tuzla and Lukavac and refused to let it pass for eight hours. The
protesters withdrew around 2 am this morning.
