Zagreb commemorates victims of missile attacks launched by Serb insurgents

Autor: mses
ZAGREB, May 3 (Hina) - Wreath-laying ceremonies were held by Zagreb Mayor Milan Bandic and by associations of civilian victims from Homeland Defence War commemorating the 15th anniversary of attacks by Serb insurgents who fired missiles with cluster munitions on Zagreb on May 2 and 3, 1995, killing six people and wounding 205, of whom 39 seriously.

The insurgents fired missiles at the centre of Zagreb in retaliation for the defeat in western Slavonia which Croatian forces liberated on 1 May that year.

The Hague-based International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY) later indicted Serb rebel leader Milan Martic for ordering the attacks. Martic was convicted of war crimes in 2007.
