On the anniversary of the birth of Professor Ukshin Hoti, the Prime Minister of Kosovo, Albin Kurti, visited the Massacre Museum in Krushë e Madhe.
He remembered the 22 martyrs and 155 martyrs who were killed by genocidal Serbia, as he recalled 64 people from Krušjan who are still missing to this day, among whom 14 are from the Ashkali community.
With the witnesses of the Krusha e Madhe massacre, they commemorated one of the most cruel massacres committed by the Serbian state apparatus on Albanian civilians. Between March 25-27, 1999, in Krushë i Madhe, Serbian forces killed 155 civilians.
Among the killed are 7 children and 5 women, one of them pregnant. Over 700 houses were burned, including religious and cultural institutions, and the property of the villagers was destroyed. During the war, 64 citizens of Krušinia were forcibly disappeared, including professor Ukshin Hoti after his release from prison.
The residents of Kruše spoke about the two crematoriums in Kruše large. In the first crematorium of which there are still traces of it, 19 innocent Albanian civilians were burned, while in the second crematorium in the house of Nezir Duraku’s family, Serbian paramilitary forces burned over 40 innocent Albanian civilians. The latter was visited on June 23, 1999, and since then the Foreign Minister of Great Britain, Robin Cook.
During his stay in Krushë e Madhe, the prime minister also wrote in the book of memories of the Massacre Museum in Krushë e Madhe.
