Croatians fleeing Vukovar during Serbia's offensive in 1991
The Vukovar massacre was a war crime that took place between November 18 and November 21, 1991 near the city of Vukovar, a mixed Croat/Serb community in northeastern Croatia. Over 200 people, mostly Croats (including civilians and POWs), of whom 194 have been identified, were murdered by members of the Serb militias aided by the Yugoslav People's Army (JNA).
Yugoslav military leaders Veselin Âljivančanin and Mile MrkÂić were indicted for their roles in orchestrating the massacre and convicted by the international court in 2007, but the same year Âljivančanin was released (because he already served his punishment of just 5 years in custody) and MrkÂić was convicted for 20 years. Miroslav Radić was free of charge. The original indictment included a number of 264 non-Serbs killed. In the trial against Vojislav ÂeÂelj, the indictment listed 255 names in relation to Ovčara. The names include one woman, a 77-year old man as the oldest and a 16-year old boy as the youngest victim of the massacre; 23 of these are older than 49 years, which is higher than Croatian military service age. Victims also included French volunteer Jean-Michel Nicolier and journalist SiniÂa GlavaÂević and his technician.
