New Blood Samples and More Experts Needed to Remedy Misidentifications After War

However, such cases could be reduced if all families agreed to provide blood samples for DNA identification. The search for remaining missing persons is also slowed by the absence of an umbrella state forensic agency, as well as by the lack of forensic archaeologists, pathologists, and other experts who could take over this work from international colleagues.

Yet, this effort hinges primarily on securing public funding and political will, as donor funding has become increasingly scarce.
