History
Throughout 1998, the village and surrounding area was the scene of fighting between the Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA) and Yugoslav security forces during the Kosovo War. [2] From March 1998, the KLA mounted a campaign to capture the village of Dashinoc and the surrounding area with the intent of driving out local Serbs. [2] On 22 April 1998, Dashinoc was captured by the KLA with many of the local Serbs fleeing amid reports of unexplained disappearances. [3] Three Serbs remained in the village and on 16 September 1998, their bodies were discovered at Lake Radonjić, murdered as part of the Lake Radonjić massacre. [4]
