The President of the Republic of Kosovo Vjosa Osmani, on the Day of the Martyrs of Prishtina, commemorated all those who fell for the freedom of the country.
“The KLA martyrs with their stoicism made our freedom possible. We will always remember them and we will try to adhere to their vision for the homeland, for which they were sacrificed. “Apart from the martyrs of the Battle of Marec, we also remember the fallen civilians, who are evidence of the barbaric actions of the genocidal government of Serbia against the innocent population,” said President Osmani.
On the same day, 23 years ago, in Ribar i Vogël of Lipjan, Serbian forces killed and massacred civilians, including those from Vërshec, who had come to take refuge. They did the very same in Dyz of Podujeva, where the killing machine of the Serbian genocidal regime focused on civilians.
“The memory of the martyrs and civilians obliges us to commit ourselves every day to the establishment of justice, to always defend the truth and to preserve freedom at all costs, because it was won with a high cost,” the President said in memory of all the fallen on this day.
