Women from the Bosnian town of Srebrenica wait for judges to enter a civil court in The Hague, Netherlands, Wednesday, July 16, 2014. A Dutch court has declared the country liable in the deaths of more than 300 Bosnian Muslim men murdered by Bosnian Serb forces in the United Nations-declared Srebrenica "safe haven" 19 years ago and ordered the government to pay compensation to their widows and families. The decision was only a partial victory for families of some 8,000 men slain in the July 1995 Srebrenica massacre. In an emotionally charged hearing judges said that Dutch UN peacekeepers should have known that more than 300 men deported from the Dutch compound by Bosnian Serb forces on July 13, 1995, would be murdered.
