  1. Excerpt from the linked content^1 by Dragan Kostic and Will Tizard:

    >A Chinese construction company working on a highway project tore down the monument. Pieces of statues of fallen World War I and II fighters are all that remain.

    >“I was literally in tears because this was something inexplicable.” [says Negrisori resident Dragomir Zivanovic]

    >A plaque with the names of almost 150 fallen soldiers was also destroyed.

    > 

    >The highway builder, China Communications Construction Company, has landed in trouble before.

    >The World Bank hit them with sanctions over fraud in the Phillipines.

    >The company did not respond to questions from RFE/RL.
