Former Vacation Spot
Is Now Transit Site

Makarska, Croatia (JTA) —
This once-popular vacation
spot on the Adriatic Coast
has become both a rehabili-
tation center for those
wounded in the seemingly
endless civil war and a tran-
sit station for refugees from
Sarajevo.
The lobby of a hotel here,
once crowded with tourists,
was now filled with people
on crutches and in
wheelchairs.
One has little trouble spot-
ting the refugees from Sara-
jevo, Bosnia-Herzegovina.
From the looks on their faces
it is clear they have hardly
recovered from the shock of
transition from the hell of
war-torn Sarajevo to the
coastal paradise of Makar-
ska.
The most recent group of
refugees from Sarajevo
arrived in a six-bus convoy
organized by the American
Jewish Joint Distribution
Committee.
Amid all the horrors of war
in the former Yugoslavia,
the refugees had a par-
ticularly gruesome sendoff
from Sarajevo: The convoy
left the Bosnian capital last
weekend just hours after a
mortar shell exploded in a
crowded open-air market,
killing 68 people and woun-
ding more than 200. It was
the deadliest attack in the
almost two years of war.
"This is heaven," Srdjan
Gorniakovitch said at the
end of the 16-hour trip that
brought the convoy here.
"It's so quiet here, I could
hardly sleep."
Mr. Gorniakovitch, 30, a
Serb, practiced medicine in
Sarajevo's Jewish commun-
ity.
He was one of the 296 peo-
ple who left Sarajevo on the
convoy.
Although the convoy was
organized under Jewish
auspices, only one-third of
the refugees were Jewish. In
the tradition of its relief
work, JDC rescued people of
all three communities,
Muslims, Christians as well
as Jews.
One of the non-Jews in the
convoy was Zajniba Har-
taga-Susic, who risked her
life to hide her Jewish
neighbors during World War
II. Seven years ago she was
designated a Righteous Gen-
tile by Yad Vashem in
Jerusalem.
Now, the wheels of history
have turned, and a Jewish

organization rescued her
and three family members
from Sarajevo.
Israeli Foreign Minister
Shimon Peres intervened on
her family's behalf by for-
mally inviting them to live
in Israel.
Hartaga-Susic has a son in
Mexico City, but she intends
to go to Israel. "That's where
the future of my grand-
daughter is secure," she
said.
Jewish Agency officials
here worked extra hours to
ensure the safe entry to
Israel of Dennis Karolic, 11.
He had left Sarajevo without
his parents, traveling with
his best friend, Ridoslav
Bozovic, and Ridoslav's
mother, who has been like a
mother to him in recent
years.
Dennis' mother had left
him two years ago and is liv-
ing in Germany. His father
stayed in Sarajevo.
Difficulties arose in ar-
ranging his entry into Israel
because Dennis' grand-

hotel is now filled
with people on
crutches.

mother was Jewish, but his
mother is not. According to
Halachah, or Jewish law,
Dennis is not Jewish and not
entitled to enter Israel under
the Law of Return.
But Dennis, along with
Ridoslav, have both been
wards of the Jewish com-
munity in Sarajevo, spen-
ding the months of the war
in the Jewish community of-
fices there, helping out.
To make sure that Dennis
would be able to go to Israel,
Jewish Agency officials were
on the phone with Jerusalem
until shortly before a group
of Jews were going to make
their departure from here.
The officials finally
achieved success, and Tuvia
Raviv, the Jewish Agency
representative here, emerg-
ed from a hotel phone booth
weary eyed, but flashing a
smile that communicated
the good news.
Dennis had no doubts
about going to Israel,
perhaps because there was
nowhere else for him to go.
"Israel is where I want to
start my life anew," he said. CI
