25 years since the fall of 17-year-old fighter Yllka Domi

Yllka was killed along with several fellow fighters and the Serbian Army, to hide traces, Yllka's body and other dead troops were sent to a mass cemetery in Batajnica, to be found rehumed on December 23rd 2003 at the Chabrat Hill in Gjakova.

By the time she was killed, she was in her last year of high school “Mazlom Kapuska” and failed to experience her graduation. But Yllka was much more than that. She was a poet who promised to bring a new spirit to Albanian poetry.

According to professors and people who knew him, Ylka's death was the loss of an intellectual framework, a native and a poet, which would be the leader of the process of state building but also a pillar of culture and literature.

Yllka grew up in a national spirit and was always facing the injustices that were then being committed to the Albanian nation. So she was always interested in precisely getting information about how things are moving. Everywhere he was active, in school, in humanitarian groups, in helping displaced people, and in places where needed. As such, it came in contact with many young men and women who were locked in the cores of the Kosovo Liberation Army. He has carried out relief courses for the wounded in the war and has exercised the use of weapons and cleaning them up.

Yllka's poetry, dedicated to life, freedom, and death, are constantly known and distributed today.
