UNPROFOR’S INVESTIGATION: WHO FIRED THE SHELL?

After they consulted each other on the topic, the UN military monitors gave up on my proposal to go and check whether there were weapons stored in the market cellars, and confirmed that the object in question, the town market, was a civil target. However, they did not confirm the fact that the aggressors were able to see that part of Marshall Tito Street from their positions, to the west and east of the Market. Since they were able to see the market from their positions, they picked a very sunny day, when visibility was extraordinary and when there were a lot of people there. The UN observers stated that such information had no importance. On that day within one hour, they fired five more mortar shells of the same caliber and series, which came from the same location as the first shell that fell on the marketplace at Markale , and fell some two or three hundred meters away. Somewhere on the level of the Theater and the UPI building. And they confirmed that these were all shells of the same caliber, manufactured by Krusik Valjevo, with 1993 fuses, and series 07. This was also confirmed, by the international military observers, who carried out the investigation with us. However, the five following shells were fired from some other location, but from the south. But not from the same location, from the direction of, the direction was confirmed by azimuth measurement.
