Operation Miracle ((アラビア語:كرامة), also ''Operation Proljeće II''〔) was a successful attack by the foreign troops of the Bosnian Mujahideen against the town of Krčevine on 21 July 1995. ==The attack== The attack itself, carried out by the ''El Mujahed Detachment'' of the 3rd Corps, was accompanied by a photographer employed by the Mujahideen,〔Library Information and Research Service, "The Middle East", Index Page 31〕 as well as Syrian-born interpreter Aiman Awad. It was part of the larger ''Proljece II'' action, aimed at capturing Krčevine, Malovan and Malije Gaj.〔ICTY transcript, (September 24 2007 )〕 ''Operation Miracle'' commenced at approximately 15:30 on July 21.〔 Adil al-Ghanim, known by the ''kunya'' Abu Mu'adh al-Kuwaiti, was the commander of the fighters who entered the city, although he did not engage in combat himself. While observing the mission from atop a nearby hill, he was shot and killed.〔 A Saudi commander from Medina who was greatly disturbed by the ongoing Srebrenica massacre of Bosnian Muslims, Abu Omar al-Harbi led a six-man team whose goal was to capture three Bosnian Serb bunkers. However, the first bunker sat in front of an open field which didn't offer any cover to the team, and the Serbs immediately began firing on them as they struggled to get their rocket-propelled grenade in position. al-Harbi began sprinting across the open field towards the bunker, shooting at the two Serbs inside. His team shouted to warn him that he could be entering a minefield, but his only response was to shout Allahu Akbar loudly before carrying on. He killed one of the Serbs from a distance approximately two metres in front of the bunker, before he was shot in the forehead and killed.〔Azzam Publishers, In the Hearts of Green Birds, 1997〕 During a "sabotage attack" led by Abu Sabit Masri against Serb foxholes, approximately three military police were killed and the severed head of Momir Mitrović was collected and brought back along with his identification and diary.〔ICTY Transcripts, (p. 5671 onward ), November 16, 2007〕 A Serbian tank was captured by Bosniak forces, who sent a radio message for al-Battar al-Yemeni, a former tank commander from the Army of Yemen, to return to the battlefield following his removal after being wounded in the hand. As Serb troops tried to destroy the captured vehicle, al-Yemeni and an unknown companion ran towards it and drove it back to the Bosnian lines. He was killed by a mortar shell four hours later, while trying to evacuate a wounded fighter from a captured bunker.〔 Krsto Marinković, of the Serbian Light Brigade, was woken up in his unit's trench by shouts of coming under attack from the Bosnians. Together with Petko Marić, he ran towards the forests in an attempt to escape the attack, where they met Velibor Tošić, and at 19:00 the trio decided to surrender themselves to the Mujahideen, in the hopes of being exchanged for Bosnian prisoners. After stepping out of the forest, they were surrounded quickly by both Bosnian and foreign Mujahideen, who kicked and punched them before making a brief video showcasing their prisoners, and entrusted them to a Bosnian and two Mujahideen who began marching them towards Livade.〔ICTY transcript, (October 3 2007 )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Operation Miracle」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
