The Srebrenica Municipal Assembly recently changed the names of streets in the town and village of Skelani, with the decision now implemented. Significant changes include Marsala Tita Street becoming Republika Srpska (RS) Street and Mihajlo Bjelakovic Square renamed RS Square. Other changes include Srebrenica City Park to Major Kosta Todorovic Park, Reufa Selmanagica Crnog Street to Dubrovacka Street, and more.
Notably, Bosniak representatives did not participate in the selection of the new names, with Serbian political representatives holding the majority of the assembly responsible for naming streets. This move has sparked controversy, especially as negotiations are ongoing to potentially change the name of Srebrenica itself, as stated by Mayor Mladen Grujicic.
Historically, many street names in Srebrenica were changed in 1996 by the local government, only to be reinstated six years later. The recent renaming has led to sharp reactions from various parties.
