The Youth Initiative for Human Rights in Croatia has sent an open letter to the President of the Republic of Croatia Zoran Milanović on the occasion of the 25th anniversary of the Storm Operation.
On Saturday August 1, the majority of tabloids (Večernje novosti, Informer, Kurir) and the Politika daily launched, on their front pages, a negative campaign against Boris Milošević, former president of Serbian National Council in Croatia, and currently Deputy Prime Minister of the Croatian Government for the announcement of his attendance at the official celebration of the Storm operation anniversary.
A group of YIHR activists from Serbia have completed a memorial tour of marking the Storm Operation in places where crimes were committed by a visit to the Jasenovac Memorial Site, that is, a site of the ‘Ciglana’ concentration camp ran by Ustashe during the rule of Independent State of Croatia in the Second World War.
Marked by the Croatian state as a resounding military success, some young Croats and Serbs come together to remember the victims of the 1995 Operation Storm.
