Duchess Sophie has embarked on a three-day visit to Bosnia and Herzegovina as she stepped in for King Charles.
On July 10, the Duchess of Edinburgh landed in Balkans to attend a somber event without husband, Prince Edward, the Duke of Edinburgh.
The Royal will mark the 30th anniversary commemoration of the Srebrenica Genocide on July 11.
She will attend the official commemoration at the Srebrenica Memorial Centre, where the duchess will deliver a message on behalf of King Charles.
The duchess will then lay a flower at the cemetery for genocide victims and meet the bereaved families, who lost their sons, fathers and husbands in the atrocity.
Srebrenica Genocide occurred in July 1995 during the Bosnian War, where over 8,000 Bosniak Muslim men and boys were killed by Bosnian Serb forces.
