More About Glogovac
Glogovac municipality is located in central Kosovo, between the Čičavica mountains in the east and the Drenica hills in the north and west. The main road from Pristina to Peć crosses the municipality.
At a junction at Komorani village, a smaller road extends north from the highway, passing through Glogovac town and continuing to Srbica town. There are a total of 36 villages in the municipality, including the town of Glogovac. The municipality's population prior to the 1999 bombing was approximately 58,579 made up almost entirely of Kosovo Albanians, with a small number of Kosovo Serbs and others only in the Glogovac town. No ethnic minorities remained in the municipality, thus Glogovac today reflects a mono-ethnic environment. Glogovac has been the cradle of Kosovo Albanian nationalist movements. Before the conflict the Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA) had a strong level of influence and controlled large areas of the municipality. Glogovac municipality was consequently badly affected, as was the entire Drenica region. A series of Yugoslav police operations resulting in armed confrontation and civilian casualties represented defining episodes in the escalation of armed conflict in Kosovo.
