Croatia removes plaque with WWII salute from near camp site


Croatian authorities on Thursday removed a plaque bearing a salute used by the country's pro-Nazi regime during World War II that was placed last year near the site of a notorious wartime concentration camp.

Workers took down the plaque in the town of Jasenovac honoring fallen Croatian fighters from the 1990s war. A fighters union said the plaque will be moved to another location but that the disputed salute will remain.
