> Ratko Mladic, the former Bosnian Serb commander convicted of genocide in Srebrenica, was buried in Belgrade with military honors after a funeral attended by several thousand people and broadcast live on television. The ceremony came as President Aleksandar Vucic is expected to call a snap parliamentary election, while the EU condemned the glorification of war criminals.
