Srebrenica typo

If you thought that the Department of Records in Brazil mistyping “Buttle” instead of “Tuttle” was one of the worst historic bureaucratic blunders, you’re wrong.
In a court case in the Netherlands in which survivors sue the UN and the Netherlands over the genocide in Srebrenica, the UN noted that “its office in Sarajevo refused air support in Srebrenica because the Dutch commander there failed to fill the request form correctly.”

Did they cross in the wrong box (please support us with UN navy maritime support) or did they wrongly identify what happened in the form (calling it mass murder prior to an independent UN confirmation based on an extended fact finding mission) or where some signatures missing (of the victims/perpetrators confirming events) ? I’m curious.
