The organisation issued a statement on Friday following the initiative by the Chief Rabbi of the Jewish Bet Israel community in Croatia, Kotel Da Don, and the Bishop of Pozega, Antun Skvorcevic, to organise an ecumenical gathering and a joint prayer service on the site of the Ustasha-run concentration camp.
"In the name of indelible sorrow for our dead and out of respect for the place where their bones were left to rest, in which only this new Croatia has raised a monument they deserve, we demand that the sanctity and peace of their graves be respected," the statement said.
