Croatian Town
Reports Damage

Zagreb, Yugoslavia (JTA)
— The Jewish community in
the war-ravaged Croatian
town of Osijek has appealed
to Jews around the world to
try to stop the "senseless
war" that is destroying lives
and property in their town
and elsewhere in the
breakaway Croatian repub-
lic.
Osijek, which has a Jewish
population of about 200, has
been in the center of battles
between the Croatian
militia and the Serbian-led
Yugoslav army.
The message, signed by
Darko Fischer, president of
the Jewish Community of
Osijek, disclosed for the first
time damage to Jewish
communal property, in-
cluding the local synagogue.
Although it reported "over
100 civilians killed and over
1,000 wounded," the mes-
sage did not mention Jewish
war casualties.
"If you would be able to
come to Osijek today, we
could only show you, with
pain and sorrow, a destroyed
city," it said. "Every third
apartment building is
damaged and most of the in-
dustry is completely
destroyed.
"Sites important for the
Jewish tradition were also
targeted. The building of the
Jewish community and the
small synagogue in it are se-
verely damaged.
"The monument Mother
and Child, by sculptor Oskar
Nemon, which is dedicated
to the memory of Jewish vic-
tims of war, was saved only
by a miracle when a bomb
exploded only 50 feet from it,
killing one citizen and leav-
ing a deep crater on the lawn
of the park."
The message, addressed to
"all Jewish communities of
Yugoslavia" and to "all
Jews of Yugoslavia," also
called on "Jews of Diaspora
and Israel" to realize what is
happening in Osijek and
cities like it.
"The people that carry in
their genes the 3,000 years
of suffering and persecution
must raise their voice and
use their influence to stop
the insanity of war," the
message said.
"The people that re-
member Masada and the
Warsaw Ghetto, pogroms
and concentration camps
must show to the world the
senselessness of war on the
eve of the 21st century."
The message was trans-
lated by Srdjan Matic, ex-
ecutive vice president of the
Jewish Community Council.
