After 26 years, 11 missing during the war in Kosovo are found in a mass grave!

Kosovo Prime Minister Albin Kurti has published on social media images from a mass grave in Bishtažin, where the bodies of 11 citizens who disappeared during the war in Kosovo were found after 26 years.

Through a post on social media, Kurti writes that after the massacre in Kralan, Serbian state forces had kidnapped and buried them in mass graves, in an attempt to eliminate them, along with evidence of the crimes.

"There they were held under constant torture, without water or food for two days. On April 4, 86 men and boys were detained, including 11 minors. Since that day, none of them have been seen alive. Some of them were found near Lake Peruqac in Bajina Bashta, Serbia. After exhumation from Bishtazhini, Serbia seized the bodies," he wrote, while sharing the names of those who have been identified.

After 26 years, in the mass grave in Bishtazh, the following have been found and identified:

"The open wounds of enforced disappearances are the truth of the inhumane crimes and genocide committed by Serbia during the war in Kosovo," Kurti writes.

After 26 springs of waiting and anxiety for their families, 11 missing during the war have been found and identified in the mass grave in Bishtažin. After the massacre in Kralan, Serbian state forces had abducted and buried them in mass graves in an attempt to eliminate them, along with evidence of the crimes.

On April 2, 1999, they, along with hundreds of Albanian men and boys, were forcibly gathered by Serbian military and police forces in a field in Kralan, surrounded by tanks.

There they were held under constant torture, without water or food for two days. On April 4, 86 men and boys were arrested, including 11 minors. Since that day, none of them have been seen alive. Some of them were found near Lake Peruqac in Bajina Bashta, Serbia. After exhumation from Bishtazhini, Serbia seized the bodies.

After 26 years, in the mass grave in Bishtazh, the following have been found and identified:

The open wounds of enforced disappearances are the truth of the inhumane crimes and genocide committed by Serbia during the war in Kosovo.

In these difficult days, it is not easy to find words of comfort that can fill the void left by their absence. It is difficult to find words powerful enough to describe the strength and unwavering patience of the family throughout these years.

On these days, and every other day, we share the pain and honor of the martyrs and martyrs of the nation in Kosovo. We stand together to prevent oblivion from covering up the atrocities that occurred during the war.

We are united in the battle for truth and justice.

We stand by the families, with all possible support, on this difficult journey of pain and memory.

Eternal may the memory of all our loved ones who sacrificed their lives for the freedom we enjoy.
