Since Adem Jashari was not at home that night, Shabani and Hamza, with their nephews and nieces, resisted the Serbian police attack.

Serbia's third attack on the Jashari family occurred on March 5, 1998. After a war that lasted three days, 59 members of the Jashari family fell heroically, including the legendary KLA commander, Adem Jashari, writes KosovaPress. (A2 Televizion)
