Kulen Vakuf massacre

1941 killing in occupied Yugoslavia

The Kulen Vakuf massacre was committed during World War II by Communist-led Yugoslav Partisans and groups of non-communist Serb rebels, killing 1,000 to 3,000 Ustaše prisoners as well as Muslim, and a smaller number of Croat, civilians in early September 1941 in Kulen Vakuf, part of the Independent State of Croatia. The local Ustaše had previously massacred Serbs in Kulen Vakuf and surrounding villages.
