Touching events will be held in the North East to commemorate the Bosnian genocide, which saw thousands of people killed and displaced in 1995.
An annual Srebrenica Memorial Week takes place this week, with this year marking the 27th anniversary of the culmination of the genocide in the town of Srebrenica.
The main community event in the North East takes place at 6.30pm on Tuesday at Newcastle Cathedral, before a flag-raising ceremony with the Lord Mayor outside Newcastle Civic Centre on July 10 at 11am.
