Memorial Staro Gračko Massacre

On 23 July 1999, 14 Serb farmers were murdered when they were harvesting. The killings occurred after Yugoslav troops withdrew from the region in the aftermath of the Kosovo War, which ended a month earlier. The farmers had requested NATO protection seven days prior to the killings, but their pleas were ignored.

The memorial also contains 5 names of people who were killed by NATO-attacks.
