Thousands of mourners gathered in Belgrade for the military funeral of Ratko Mladić, the former Bosnian Serb commander convicted of genocide during the 1990s Bosnian war. The event drew significant public attendance in the Serbian capital to honor the figure widely known as the 'Butcher of Bosnia.'

The funeral occurred amid international scrutiny, as the European Union had previously warned Serbia against glorifying the convicted war criminal. Mladić’s legacy remains a point of contention, balancing local commemorative efforts against the international legal findings regarding his role in the Bosnian conflict.
