The Grubori massacre was the mass murder of six Serb civilians from the village of Grubori, near Knin, on 25 August 1995 by members of the Croatian Army (HV) in the aftermath of Operation Storm. The massacre was listed in the ICTY's indictment of Croatian wartime generals Ante Gotovina, Ivan Čermak and Mladen Markač.
At the completion of the trial in 2011, Čermak was acquitted while Gotovina and Markač were both convicted of various crimes. They were acquitted on appeal in 2012. In 2010, three members of the Lučko Anti-Terrorist Unit, Franjo Drlje, Božo Krajina and Igor Beneta, were indicted and put on trial at the Zagreb Country Court for the crime. Beneta committed suicide, while Drljo and Krajina were acquitted. The verdict was quashed by the Supreme Court and a re-trial in 2016 ended with the same outcome.
