History

[edit]

In June 1941, on the Eastern Orthodox Pentecost, Ustaše from Livno raided the village.[1] The Ustaše carried out atrocities in the region.[2] Several locals joined the 4th Krajina Brigade of the Yugoslav Partisans.[3] The village was destroyed by Croat forces during and after the Yugoslav wars, but organisations such as the United Methodist Church have raised funds to help rebuild the village.[citation needed] The local Serb population fled to Serbia in 1995 amid Operation Storm. A small number has since returned.
