Sažetak
In the afternoon of November 27, 1991, a sudden heavy artillery attack was launched by the Yuoslav Federal Army from the Baranja region on the Pulmology and Tuberculosis Ward of the Osijek General Hospital. The building was directly hit with two projectiles and four fell into the yard. Four patients were killed and three wounded on the stairway while trying to take shelter in the basement. The dead and the wounded were patients with advanced tuberculosis or carcinoma of the lungs. This brutal attack showed once more that the Yugoslav Federal Army and Serbian terrorists have no respect for human lives and the Geneva Conventions.
