“I am deeply saddened by the serious damage to this treasured symbol of cultural and spiritual heritage. My thoughts are with Brčko’s Islamic Community, with its Chief Imam Mustafa-ef.

I also want to commend the swift response of firefighters and police, whose efforts helped prevent further damage, injuries and loss of life,” Crishock stated.
