The Srebrenica Massacre consisted in the murder of approximately 8,000 Bosnian Muslims in the Srebrenica region in July 1995, during the Bosnian War. This mass murder, carried out by units of the Republika Srpska Army, the VRS, under the command of General Ratko Mladić, as well as by a Serbian paramilitary group known as "The Scorpions", occurred in an area previously declared as " safe "by the United Nations, since at that time was under the" protection "of 400 Dutch blue helmets. Although the elimination of Bosnian Muslim males was especially sought, the massacre included the murder of children, adolescents, women and the elderly, with the aim of achieving ethnic cleansing of the city.

The Sudanese government, although publicly denying its support to the Janjaweed, has provided them with weapons and assistance, and has participated together with them in several attacks against the Fur, Zaghawa and Masalit peoples. The beginning of the conflict is usually in February 2003. The conflict has been described as a genocide towards black people by the international media and by the US government, although not by the UN.
