The
Ivanci massacre
was the complete destruction of the Serb village of
Ivanci
in eastern
Croatia
(south of
Ila?a
) on 30 November 1943 by
Nazi German
forces.
During
World War II
,
Syrmia
was a part of The Independent State of Croatia led by the fascist
Usta?a
regime which implemented
genocide of Serbs on its territory
. The historical Serb village of Ivanci, which was located south of
Ila?a
, was destroyed on 30 November 1943 while 73 inhabitants were killed in half an hour.
[2]
The village of Ivanci was the center of the
Yugoslav Partisans
in Syrmia with established local branches of
Women's Antifascist Front of Yugoslavia
and
League of Communist Youth of Yugoslavia
.
[2]
Surviving villagers found safety in
?idski Banovci
,
Tovarnik
and Ila?a.
[2]
The village of Ivanci was never resettled after the end of World War II. The commemorative site was constructed in the old village in 1956 but it was devastated in 1991 in the early stages of the
Croatian War of Independence
.
[3]
In 2012 the non-governmental organization "Ivanci" was established in the village of
?idski Banovci
aimed at reconstruction of the monument in the memorial area, collection of materials for the publication of a monograph and organization of commemorations.
