Ravno massacre

1991 massacre in Bosnia and Herzegovina

In early October 1991, the village of Ravno in Herzegovina, inhabited mostly by Croats, was destroyed by the Yugoslav People's Army (JNA) and associated reservists. In several days of violence marked by shelling, shootings, raids, and expulsions, 24 civilians were killed, 34 died of "natural" death, 11 were injured, and 18 were taken away to Trebinje. The entire settlement was reduced to rubble.
