Text on the monument:

At this site,
on 18 April 1993,
a tank-trailer exploded
filled with 3.5 tonnes
of explosives sent by
HVO extremists with the aim of
destroying and expelling
Bosniaks of Stari
Vitez. Thank Allah,
they did not succeed, but
unfortunately,
six innocent people were killed
May they rest in peace
and may we remember not
forget and may this
never happen again.

Killed in the tank-trailer explosion on 18 April 1993
(names of those killed with the following information: year of birth and year of death)

And do not say about those
who are killed
in the way of Allah,
"They are dead!"
Rather, they are alive,
but you perceive it not!
