They fell on the battlefield, becoming immortal”, emphasized President Osmani.

Ilaz remains an example of a fighter with a cause, who put the fate of his people above his personal fate, thus making him our hero. He will remain a guide for generations to come and just as he was the guardian of the civilian population from the Serbian genocidal regime then, today he is the guardian of freedom and our state together with the other heroes of the KLA.
