Bunjevci

Serbia's Academy of Sciences and Arts, SANU, has dismissed as an "inflammatory political pamphlet" a paper drafted by its Croatian counterpart setting out the demands it says Zagreb should make as part of the negotiation process on the European Union accession of Serbia, Montenegro and Bosnia and Herzegovina.

This is indeed disgraceful behaviour by Serbian authorities, the Croatian portal Index.hr quoted him as saying Tuesday.

The accident happened at about 7.00 am, at the so-called Tavankut Crossroads.
Two people were killed and, according to the RTS, there are also injured who were transferred to the hospital in Subotica.
Traffic was diverted to alternative routes: to Ljutovo and Novi Zednik.
Traffic accident investigation is ongoing.

The act, that was issued in the form of an order, states that all members of the Bunjevci ethnic minority in Serbia - regardless of how they declare themselves - are to be considered Croats.
