Two Croatian military leaders have been convicted of atrocities against Serbs during the break up of Yugoslavia in the 1990s, after a trial at The Hague.

Judges sentenced Ante Gotovina to 24 years and Mladen Markac to 18 years in jail for crimes including murder, persecution and plunder.

Horrible day for Croatia.

I know Gotovina personally, an honourable man, ex-Legionnaire. We met during the war, both had come back to Croatia from afar.

Collateral damage.

Judges sentenced Ante Gotovina to 24 years and Mladen Markac to 18 years in jail for crimes including murder, persecution and plunder.

The men helped to plan an operation to retake Croatia's Krajina region and force out all Serbs in 1995.

The Croatian government and public have reacted angrily to the verdict.
