Bosnian War
In Ratkovići 1991 lived 338 inhabitants, of which 337 (99,70%) Serbs. On 21 June 1992 Bosnian Muslims killed 24 Serbs from Ratkovići.[2] Muslims are attacked the village in the morning. They were killing unarmed civilians and burned their houses. They are killed 24 civilians, including women, children and disabled peoples. The Hague Tribunal on 3 July 2008 is freed Naser Orić charges for crimes in Ratkovići, because apparently no evidence of his command responsibility.[3]For the murder of Serbian civilians so far no one has been convicted. In Rankovići is a monument with the names of victims of crime. Now in Ratkovici live only 53 inhabitants (census 2013.).
