Protesters Demand Gaza Ceasefire at San Francisco Airport

Approximately 300 demonstrators gathered at San Francisco International Airport to demand a ceasefire in Gaza and an end to US military aid to Israel. Holding banners with messages such as “Permanent ceasefire now” and “Stop arming Israel,” they temporarily blocked the entrance to the international terminal. Despite the protest, the airport remained operational, with passengers redirected to alternate entrance gates. An unnamed protester expressed frustration, stating, “We don’t want to be here, but we have to be here.” The group emphasized their efforts, including petitions, emails, and meetings with congressmen, urging the government to heed the calls for peace.

Srebrenica Genocide Victims Laid to Rest on 30th Anniversary

Seven newly identified victims of the 1995 Srebrenica genocide were buried at the Potocari Memorial Cemetery in Bosnia and Herzegovina on the 30th anniversary of the massacre. The genocide, recognized by international courts, claimed over 8,300 Muslim lives during the Bosnian War.

The ceremony drew leaders and officials from across the region and Europe, including Turkish Parliament Speaker Numan Kurtulmuş, Croatian Prime Minister Andrej Plenković, and French and NATO representatives.

Bosnian official Denis Bećirović emphasized the years of propaganda and planning that led to the genocide, while French President Emmanuel Macron warned that denialism has no place in EU-aspiring nations. NATO’s Mark Rutte called it a lasting tragedy linking the Netherlands and Bosnia.

Sirens marked the remembrance across cities, and symbolic tributes—including a silent jump from Mostar Bridge and the release of lilies—honored the victims. The newly buried include victims aged between 17 and 67.
