Sažetak
Autopsy records of 19 killed civilians from the Kordun region up to November 25, 1991, were analyzed. Most of the victims were of older age (range 21-81 yrs, median 50-60 yrs). Autopsy findings revealed gunshot wounds as the cause of death in 58% of them, which is unusual for civilian deaths in the war against Croatia (explosive wounds are more frequent than gunshot wounds). The work of forensic experts and police inspectors has been greatly impaired by intesive Yugoslav Federal Army and local Serbian terrorists military operations in the region, including the Karlovac hospital.
