He killed one police officer and wounded two others before he was shot dead by other police officers. This was the first attack of its kind in Republika Srpska, though similar ones have occurred in the other entity, the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina, including the 1997 Mostar car bombing and the 2010 Bugojno bomb attack on a police station in central Bosnia as well as an attack on the U.S. embassy in the capital Sarajevo a year later. The authorities of Bosnia and Herzegovina on each level characterised the shooting as a terrorist attack. Police forces of Republika Srpska launched a counter-terrorist operation codenamed Operation Ruben, with the declared aim of disrupting targets suspected of possessing firearms and involvement in radical Islamist circles. The move was heavily criticised by several Bosniak politicians on account of an unusual absence of coordination with the central government, with some suggesting that the operation was calculated to intimidate Bosniak refugees who had returned to live on what is today Republika Srpska's territory. == Shooting == Nerdin Ibrić, a radical Islamist born in 1991 in Sapna near Zvornik, drove up to the Zvornik police station at around 19:00. When a sentry told him that he could not park in front of the station, Ibrić produced a rifle and opened fire at the officer, shouting ''Allahu akbar'' (lit. "God is Great") according to police personnel at site. Police officer Dragan Đurić was struck by several bullets, and killed. Ibrić then went inside the station and continued shooting, wounding two other officers, after which he was killed by the police. The wounded policemen where quickly transferred to the local hospital. Police believe that the attack was well-planned in advance, as Ibrić knew exactly when the officers' shifts switched, and thus began his spree when the most policemen would be inside the station. Several Bosnian-language news portals claimed that Ibrić had never shouted ''Allahu akbar'', and another news portal reported that he had shouted profanities and threats instead. The following day, the same portal reported that Ibrić had initially yelled profanities and threats, but later began shouting ''Allahu akbar''. The Minister of Interior of the Republika Srpska, Dragan Lukač, said that the assailant was probably a Wahhabist and called the shooting an act of terrorism. The President of Republika Srpska, Milorad Dodik, criticised police and security agencies at the state-level for not providing Bosnian Serb authorities with any useful information about potential terrorist plots prior to the attack. However, three days prior to the shooting, the Intelligence-Security Agency of Bosnia and Herzegovina (OSA-OBA BiH) had informed police agencies in the country that there was a possibility of a terrorist attack as retribution for the recent arrests of several individuals of Bosniak origin in Australia who had planned terrorist attacks there. 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「Zvornik police station shooting」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
