n the early morning hours of 5 March 1998, Prekaz was attacked again by the large forces of Yugoslav national army and police.[5] A second ring of troops was formed to prevent any possible escape. The attacking force consisted of armored personnel carriers and policemen, backed up by artillery from a nearby ammunition factory. The gun battle lasted for two days.[2] Police forces first asked Jashari to come out and give himself up, then gave him a 2 hour deadline to consider the offer. After time ran out, shootings started. In one of the houses, the police fired mortars, followed by tear gas. Most of Jashari's extended family gathered in a single room, which had a brick wall. The shelling continued for another thirty-six hours before the police finally entered the compound. Adem Jashari together with fifty-two[5] of his family members were killed, some of them burned beyond recognition.[2]
