(Patria) - Delegations of Sarajevo Canton, the City of Sarajevo, and the Municipality of Stari Grad today, by reciting Fatiha, observing a minute of silence, and laying flowers, paid tribute to the citizens killed in Isevića sokak street at number 23.

Thirty years ago, at this location, eight Sarajevans, including two children, were killed and 19 were wounded by a tank shell fired from the aggressor positions of the Army of Republika Srpska, while they were waiting in line for water.
