Produktbeschreibung
The Zagreb rocket attacks were a series of two artillery attacks conducted by Serb armed forces that fired ground-to-ground missiles on the Croatian capital of Zagreb. The attack killed seven and wounded at least 175 Croatian civilians and was carried out on May 2 and May 3, 1995 as a retaliation for Croatian army offensive in Operation Flash and deliberately targeted civilian locations. Zagreb was the largest of several cities hit by the attack. During the early part of the war, the Croatian capital Zagreb was spared from devastation, as it was far from the frontlines. Serb General Milan eleketi announced to the press on March 24, 1995, more than a month prior to the attack, that should a Croatian offensive be launched, he expected to respond by targeting the "weak points," that is, "the parks of the Croatian cities" and added: "We know who the people in the parks are; civilians."
