Voluntary action to protect from snow avalanche



25.11.2012. Restelica, Dragash
At an altitude of over 2,000m, the local people of the village Restelica on their own initiative, without the help of the state Kosovo, trying to protect the place where the tragedy had occurred in February this year.

In the February 11 snow avalanche killed ten people and one girl five years was found alive.
Because the terrain is very inaccessible, the only means of transportation of materials to scene of the accident are horses and building machines - dampers.


Promises that were given by the state, politicians and other people that will be very soon restored the accident site and will try to protect the accident site. But promises were not fulfilled, and the local people are very angry and are willing to take a physical fight with any man who is not from Restelica.


Me and my friend on the way to the scene were verbally attacked and we were not allowed to take photos.


It happened and Kosovo police and journalists from Prishtina. Upset and very angry local people do not allow anyone to take photographs of their work, with the explanation that journalists guilty as the state nothing is done until now.


The story and photos are posted on

Happiness in an accident

And all those who rejoice
All that we are giving away dolls
I dont know what happened
Maybe one day I will understand
My happiness in accident
I live with my on my back
For you, the one day of mourning
and for me all my life frozen in the ice color.
