My last day in Knin

I turned on the radio, some Croatian station - Franjo Tuđman was just sending a message to the Serbs to stay in their houses, because the action "Storm" had started. At that moment, it was 5:02 a.m. on August 4, the cannonade started and the electricity went out, so I didn't listen to Tudjman's message to the end. A strong explosion resounded nearby – lying on the floor, I saw through the window that the building in the neighborhood known as S-13, the tallest in Knin, had been hit. There was not a single military facility anywhere nearby

Plenković: "Storm" is a liberation action

The central "Storm" celebration is traditionally organized in Knin, and Prime Minister Andrej Plenković said that Croatia will never allow an attack on that action or accept indictments from Belgrade.
