In spite of the fact that the majority of the civilian population of Serb ethnicity were not by any means related to this event, Croatian Defense Council (#HVO) and Croatian Defense Forces (#HOS) initiated a fierce retaliation in the area of #Mostar and its surrounding. At that time, at this area, there were about 25 000 Serbs. From then on, the hunt was initiated with the HVO and HOS military police patrols circulating through the town; they started to get in the people's apartments and with no further explanation, they threw people out of their apartments and houses and the persons found in the streets knew that they would be liquidated at the spot, or arrested and taken to the camps, from which many of them never returned.
In the growing tensions, the members of #HOS attacked the Northern Barracks on the 2nd of April 1992, when several military staff members were wounded. The Commander of the Mostar garrison replied with repressive measures and retaliation.According to the information of the Croatian Intelligence Service #SIS, the first liquidations, i.e. disappearances of the persons of Serb ethnicity were registered at the beginning of July, 1992, if the liquidations of persons "under accusations that they were snipers", who were killed with no trial in the course and shortly after the military operation "Dawns of June" - are not taken into account. According to this information, on the 12th of July, just by the Bristol Hotel, HOS killed Dragan Đuranović, nicknamed Đuro, born in 1956. On the 25th of July, 1992 Ljubomir Paši, born in 1950 (Sthepana Radića Street 72) was taken to the unknown location. He was arrested and taken to the unknown location by the members of security of Jadran Topić, the prime minister of the HVO Government Mostar. "Under unfortunate circumstances" on the 8th of October, Vasilija Hamović, doctor Konstantin Repović's aunt was killed. Three unidentified persons, according to SIS, robbed and then set on fire the leisure house belonging to doctor Repović in #Blagaj, then went to his apartment "probably to commit a robbery again, when the murder occurred". Regarding the disappearance of Dragomir Ilić, born in 1927 (Splitska Street 71), it was clearly established, according to the information, that he was taken on the 1st of March at 21:30 by Tihomir Burić, nicknamed Splićo, and two other persons wearing uniforms. On the 21st February Vladimir Pavić and Goran Zurovac went missing after around 00:30 they were taken from the Liska Street by Tihomir Burić and three other persons. This information states about the "#Goranci pit where the persons of Serb ethnicity were thrown" that they have the information that "about 60 persons were thrown to the pit so far". The first persons thrown to the pit were allegedly "snipers and arrested Chetniks", and as of recently most probably This document also mentions disappearance of 15 persons from Ante Zuanić Street 15. Military police officers were led by Tihomir Burić, and according to the information, this group also included Braco Zelenika, a younger son of Petar Zelenika. At that time, they were convinced that all arrested persons were of Croat ethnicity, but the group included also two Croat women, one Bosniak woman and one Jewish woman. The information mentions the data about vehicles and the registration plates of the vehicles, which were used during the expelling of these people. The list of persons who should have been expelled was prepared by Petar Zelenika and Rade Bošnjak, and it was delivered to Željko Džidić "to execute it through his men... With regard to the above, we have additional operational data and documentation".... During the operation "Dawns of June", on the 15th of June 1992, the Orthodox Church of the Holy Trinity was burned down. Before that on the 2nd and 3rd of June 1992, the Church was shelled by HV (Croatian Army) and HVO. Following that, the Church was totally destroyed with explosives... With the concentration camps for Serbs, established at that time at Ćelovina (Šantić Street), the building of the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Heliodrom at Rodoč, this was a clear message to Serbs that there was no place for them in Mostar and that they were sentenced to death by politics.
