Human rights activist Natasa Kandic expressed concern over what she said are 
attempts by Croatia’s top state officials to protect the military from charges 
of bombing a refugee column in 1995.

Serbian prosecutors indicted four Croatian military pilots who are alleged to 
have bombed a column of Serb refugees fleeing their homes during Croatian army 
and police operation Storm to take control of Serb-held areas of the country in 
August 1995.

Kandic, coordinator of the REKOM Reconciliation Network and former head of the 
Humanitarian Law Fund (FHP) said that there is clear evidence that the Croatian 
military bombed the refugee column on August 7-8, 1995. “It’s worrying that the 
Croatian president and prime minister believe that protecting Croatian Army 
(HV) personnel from criminal accountability is a national priority even when 
there is clear evidence that the HV bombed the refugee column twice on August 7 
and 8, 1995, killing at least six children,” Kandic said in a Twitter post.

She said that the authorities in the countries of the former Yugoslavia would 
not be protecting officers instead of victims regardless of ethnicity if rule 
of law had been established and added that Croatian prosecutors should have 
determined who ordered the bombing of the refugee column. She said that 
prosecutors in Bosnia-Herzegovina were also obliged to investigate the HV for 
the bombing of refugee columns in that country.
