bakery products soar in Germany amid war in Ukraine

Following the rise in oil prices in Germany as a result of the Ukraine-Russia conflict, bread prices rose as well. The consequences of the Ukraine-Russia conflict are still being felt in Germany. While many bakeries in Germany raised their bread prices, the authorities cited a number of factors, including the conflict between Ukraine and Russia, which disrupted supply chains from both countries, the poor harvest season, supply chains disrupted by the Covid-19 pandemic, rising energy prices, and high labor and production costs.  Bakery owners in Germany anticipate a 40% price increase in sugar, a 35% increase in grain, a 25% increase in flour, and a 20% increase in other bakery products compared to the previous year.

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.
