The boats arrived in the morning, lifted their nets at about 1pm and
returned in the afternoon along with other fishing boats.
One of them fished a mile off Savudrija, which is so far an
unprecedented provocation in relation to fishing in Croatian
waters, a fishermen association's president, Daniele Kolec, said
Saturday night.
He said it was obvious that nobody could do anything about the
Slovene fishermen.
A spokeswoman for Istria police, Stefania Prosenjak-Zumbar, said
there was no official police statement about today's incident, and
one would not be issued until negotiations at the state level
lasted.
