TUZLA, Bosnia-Herzegovina (AP) -- Forensics experts exhumed from a mass grave the remains of 616 Bosnian Muslim men killed by Serb forces in the 1995 Srebrenica massacre, officials said Friday.

The site is the ninth mass grave discovered in the village of Kamenica in eastern Bosnia.

Of the 616 bodies, only 76 were found complete, said Fatima Hadzibeganovic, a prosecutor in the city of Tuzla, where the exhumation team is from. The team had been working at the mass grave for a month before it exhumed all bodies in it.
