PAKRAC PAKRAC, May 4 (Hina) - Wreaths were laid and a mass was celebrated at the town cemetery in Pakrac on Friday to mark the sixth anniversary of Flash, the operation which liberated western Slavonia from Serb occupation. The town
authorities held a session to mark the event. President Stipe Mesic's envoy Lt. Gen. Kresimir Kaspar told the session Croatia must clear up the misdeeds of some of its individuals, "for us, as well as for our state in which the law and the rule-of-law will be respected." Deputy parliamentary speaker Ivica Kostovic said Flash had brought this area peace, law and order, namely what Europe expected. Unfortunately, he added, "war and the sacrifice we suffered could not have been averted as irrationality prevailed on the other side."(hina) ha sb
