Ilir Konushefci, an activist and one of the organizers of the Kosovo Liberation Army’s struggle in Llap, was killed in the line of duty. He was born in the village of Llug\u00eb, municipality of Podujeva, in 1969. In May 1992, he, along with a group of friends, founded the illegal group \u201cShqiponjat\u201d (The Eagles). In 1993, he joined the National Movement for the Liberation of Kosovo (LK\u00c7K) and distributed the newspaper of this movement, \u201c\u00c7lirimi\u201d (Liberation). In June 1996, he came into contact with Zahir Pajaziti and supported him continuously from that time on. On January 31, 1997, he went underground and later moved to Albania, where he worked on supplying arms to the Kosovo Liberation Army. After the assassination of Zahir Pajaziti, he represented the Llap Operational Zone in the General Staff of the Kosovo Liberation Army. On October 16, 1997, he and his friends organized an attack on the Serbian police station in Kliqina, in the Peja municipality. He was killed in an ambush while traveling to the city of Bajram Curri, in Albania. The President of the Republic of Kosovo posthumously awarded him the title \u201cHero of Kosovo.\u201d (In the photo: Ilir Konushefci<\/i>)<\/p>\n
