  • La masacre de Joševica fue un crimen de guerra cometido por las fuerzas paramilitares de los serbios rebeldes en el pueblo croata de Joševica durante la Guerra de Croacia. Estas atrocidades tuvieron lugar el 16 de diciembre de 1991.​ En ese momento no había ningún combate activo en el área de Joševica, ya que las fuerzas rebeldes serbias ya habían ocupado el área. Los comandantes militares de los serbios también habían hecho garantizar a los croatas locales que iban a disfrutar de la paz y la seguridad en caso de que no participaron en la resistencia armada.​ (es)

  • The Joševica massacre was a war crime committed by the paramilitary forces of the Krajina Serbs in the Croatian village of Joševica during the Croatian War of Independence. The atrocities took place on December 16 of 1991. Serb paramilitary forces killed 21 Croatian civilians in the village of Joševica near the city of Glina. The Serb paramilitaries were members of a reconnaissance and sabotage group of the local Glina Territorial Defense, they entered the village on 16 December 1991, armed with submachine guns attached with silencers, and shot Croat civilians in their homes. One civilian survived the attack with serious wounds. After a few weeks, Serb paramilitary forces perpetrated another massacre, killing another 3 Croats. In total, 32 residents of Joševica out of 133 that had lived in Joševica (census 1991) were killed. The victims were mostly women and elderly, the eldest victim being 90 years old, while four victims were children aged between 10 and 16. At the time there was no active combat in the Joševica area, as the forces of rebel Serbs had already occupied the area. Serb military commanders had also made guarantees to the local Croats that they would enjoy peace and safety if they did not partake in armed resistance. It has been speculated that the Serb paramilitaries may have committed the massacre in revenge for losses they had sustained in battle with the Croatian Army on the 12 and 13 December 1991. (en)
