IBRAHIM IBRA D\u017dAFEROVI\u0106, also known as GA\u010cANIN, son of AJDIN, born in 1922* in Gacko. He was a guard at the Tobacco Factory in Mostar. A pre-war activist and a member of the League of Communist Youth (SKOJ) since 1940. He was one of the assassins targeting the Chetnik ideologist Radmilo Gr\u0111i\u0107.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After the brief April war and the capitulation of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia’s army, he was part of a group of young people who transported weapons and ammunition from the barracks to a safe place. “After our nighttime removal of weapons and other equipment, the group took out food from the warehouse in the morning: bacon, lard, flour, beans, rice, sugar, and other items. It was comical to see Ibra D\u017eeferovi\u0107 carrying a huge slab of bacon. We all laughed, including himself, but he didn’t give up on carrying it. Part of this food was hidden in the house of the young member Mirko Kova\u010devi\u0107, which was located right next to the wall of the division barracks, and the larger portion was taken to our house, to be later distributed to poor families in our street in the afternoon.”<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n In April 1942, he joined the Battalion. He was a fighter who died in a clash with Chetniks in Zaborani near Nevesinje in June 1942. On that occasion, in addition to Ibra D\u017eafarovi\u0107, the following individuals were either killed or severely wounded and then executed: HASAN DAUPOVI\u0106 \u0160KODA, an official from Ljubu\u0161ki, ABDULAH DIZDAREVI\u0106 DULE, a merchant from Ljubu\u0161ki, DANILO KOVA\u010cEVI\u0106, a farmer from the village of Spile near Nik\u0161i\u0107, RADOSLAV KOVA\u010cEVI\u0106<\/a>, a farmer from the village of Spile near Nik\u0161i\u0107, PETAR LAZETI\u0106, a worker from Mostar, \u0110OR\u0110E MUJA\u010cI\u0106, a farmer from the village of Crkvice near Nik\u0161i\u0107, MILAN NOVAKOVLJ\u0106, a farmer from the village of Crkvice near Nik\u0161i\u0107, SIMO VUJA\u010cI\u0106, a farmer from the village of Mao\u010di\u0107i near Nik\u0161i\u0107, and ALEKSA VUJO\u0160EVI\u0106, a Montenegrin. Nenad Vasi\u0107, Branko Popadi\u0107, Ilija Vujovi\u0107, and Hilmija \u010ci\u0161i\u0107, who suffered a leg injury, managed to escape with minor wounds, while Martin Ragu\u017e and Vaso Kova\u010devi\u0107 were unharmed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Further information about the death of Ibra D\u017eaferovi\u0107 and his comrades is recorded in the book “Mostar Battalion” by Enver \u0106emalovi\u0107:<\/p>\n\n\n\n “When our fighters came for lunch, as usual, they placed their weapons in the corner, located in the hallway, and entered the room, where they sat at the table waiting for lunch. A group of locals led by Novica G. burst into the dining area, pointing their rifles and commanded, ‘Hands up!’ At the same time, another group took the weapons of our fighters from the hallway outside the house. Our comrades were completely surprised and unarmed, so they had no choice but to obey the orders of the traitors. The Chetniks tied up our comrades and locked them in the basement, placing a guard. Afterward, all the locals gathered and set an ambush on the road leading out of Zaborani to intercept Vasi\u0107 and the fighters of the Strike Company. When the courier returned from Drami\u0161evo, he announced that Novica was sick and that Vasi\u0107’s child had been bitten by a snake, so they couldn’t come. They requested the courier to come to Drami\u0161evo instead. Vasi\u0107 immediately decided to go to Drami\u0161evo with his squad to talk to G. Hasan Daupovi\u0107 \u0160koda, Abdulah Dizdarevi\u0107 Dule, and Martin Ragu\u017e joined them. Near Drami\u0161evo, along the road that passed through pastures and open space, the compact column of the squad was moving and presented an ideal target for the Chetnik ambush. Vasi\u0107 and Ilija G. were at the rear of the column. The Chetniks allowed our column to come closer, and then they opened fire on them. The front of the column was mowed down by bullets, and most of them were mortally wounded (…).”<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" IBRAHIM IBRA D\u017dAFEROVI\u0106, also known as GA\u010cANIN, son of AJDIN, born in 1922* in Gacko.

Until the formation of the 13th Herzegovina Brigade in May 1944, 827 fighters passed through the Battalion, and 445 of them perished, including 211 from Mostar. Of the 86 women, 43 were killed. Mostar residents also fought in many other units of the NOVJ (People's Liberation Army of Yugoslavia) and among the ranks of the activists of the National Liberation War in Mostar and other cities in Bosnia and Herzegovina... According to the records of the organization SUBNOR Mostar, every third citizen was an activist of the National Liberation War, 670 fighters were killed, 1517 were victims of fascist terror, and 206 were civilian war victims. D\u017eemil \u0160arac, article \"Sa Mostarcima\" (\"With the People from Mostar\"), Hercegovina No. 9, p. 221.\r\n\r\n\"And we were all young. Those of us who were 17, 18 years old, some seemed old even though they were not older than 25. The ones over 30 were rare. There were girls and boys with different characteristics and temperaments, robust and calm, talkative and silent, recklessly brave and rational, ordinary and above-average, semi-literate and university-educated, workers and highly skilled craftsmen, high school students and university students, skilled singers and those who couldn't carry a tune, jokers and serious-minded individuals. From all our nations and religions: Muslims, Croats, Serbs, Jews, Orthodox Christians, Catholics, Muslims, Jews, atheists, and semi-atheists. Some were from straight from Mostar and others from the surrounding locations, from Konjic and outside Konjic.\" (Hercegovina Magazine No. 7, p. 238)\r\n\r\nGroups of new fighters arrived from Mostar every 10-15 days, and the Unit quickly grew into a solid military force. The guides for the groups from Mostar were Mehmed Arap, Vasa Maslo, Serif Buri\u0107, Husa Orman, Vojo Ivani\u0161evi\u0107, and Pero Krajina, who were among the bravest and most resourceful fighters. The groups regularly brought not only weapons but also medical supplies, sugar for the hospital, writing materials, large quantities of paper, books taken from the National Library (which formed the library at Borci), and other supplies for the needs of the Unit.
