Ten-Day War (Slovenian Independence War) - The First shot
Time: Thursday Jun 27, 1991 at 02:30:00 PM
Place: Divača, Slovenia
Details: The border crossings were a major source of revenue. In addition, by taking control of the borders, the Slovenians were able to establish defensive positions against an expected JLA attack. This meant that the YPA would have to fire the first shot. It was fired on 27 June at 14:30 in Divača by an officer of YPA.
