Zeev Milo
Zeev Milo was born in Zagreb in 1922. He comes from a Jewish family who were in Zagreb at the beginning of the Second World War and shared the destiny of other Jews in the period of Nezavisna Država Hrvatska, NDH [Independent State of Croatia]. Fleeing from persecution, Zeev Milo and his family went to the Italian Zone, to Novi Vinodolski. After the capitulation of Italy in 1943, the whole family joined the Partisans. After the War they returned to Zagreb, where they had accommodation problems, and where Zeev Milo continued his studies. In the 1950s the family decided to leave Yugoslavia for Israel. It was then that he decided to change his name to Zeev Milo. He returned to Zagreb for the first time in 1992. He was unpleasantly surprised with the new situation in Croatia, and he believed that he would never return to the country again. However, in 2012 he visited Zagreb and took part in a gathering devoted to the massacre in the Church in Glina.
