Nedzad Avdic, a Srebrenica massacre survivor, shared his harrowing experience at the 30th anniversary commemoration in Berlin. His testimony countered the AfD party's denial of the genocide.

Experts warn of the financial incentives driving this trend, impacting public understanding of atrocities from Srebrenica to current conflicts.
