The twenty-fifth anniversary of the suffering of 33 Bosnian Croat civilians killed by members of the Army of the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina, in the village of Grabovica, southern Bosnia, was marked, Sunday, by prayer, laying of wreaths and lighting of candles.

Bosnia’s tripartite Presidency member Dragan Covic paid his respects to the victims along with the delegation of Croat parties gathered around the Croat National Assembly (HNS), by laying wreaths and lighting candles in front of the monument to the deceased.
