Abstract

Koristeći se objavljenim izvorima te arhivskim gradivom iz Državnog arhiva u Splitu i Hrvatskoga državnog arhiva, autorica analizira tijek Kninske operacije kojom su završena vojna djelovanja na području Dalmacije u Drugome svjetskom ratu, te ratne zločine počinjene u studenome i prosincu 1944. od postrojbi 8. dalmatinskog korpusa i OZNE. Iako je od Komisije za utvrđivanje ratnih i poratnih žrtava ustanovljen određeni broj grobišta na širem području Drniša i Knina, brojni izvori upućuju na mogućnost postojanja dosad neotkrivenih masovnih grobnica, naročito na kninskome području gdje su vođene najteže borbe. ----- The article describes the development of Knin operation, the largest military operation lead on the territory of Dalmatia during World War II, in which during November and December 1944 most units of the 8th corps took part. Military operations in the territory of Šibenik, Zadar and Drniš at the beginning of November 1944 represent the early stage of Knin operation. During these actions greater number of military and civil persons were liquidated without trial, and part of them were mobilized into partisan forces. With no further research and digging it is not possible to tell with certainty the number of victims in the stated territory, but the available figures indicate that it might be the case of a few hundred, maybe a thousand of Croatian military forces and Wehrmacht members.
