Despite the demilitarization of the old town by the Yugoslav People's Army in the 1970s in an attempt to prevent it from becoming a casualty of war, following Croatia's independence in 1991, the same army attacked and surrounded the city on October 1, 1991 and the siege lasted until May 1992. The heaviest artillery attack happened on December 6 with 19 people killed and 60 wounded. Total casualty in the conflict on this area according to the Croatian Red Cross were 114 killed civilians.

Life is not always pretty.
Good viewpoint into this house, a sad story, i hope the occupants were ok but it makes for an interesting shot of the houses. They looked like cute little houses!

Ooh, I like the perspective on this shot. What a great place this is for taking photos! The story of this place is definitely sad. It makes you wonder about human nature that we do these things to one another.

Hoping for only the best for all my caedes friends in the coming year.
A truly sad story, but an excellent photograph. It looks like Mother Nature is trying to heal the scars of this awful conflict.
