Mass Graves In Slovenia
Mass graves in Slovenia were created in Slovenia as the result of extrajudicial killings during and after the Second World War.

They have been compared by the Slovenian historian Jože Dežman to the Killing Fields in Cambodia.

Ustje
Ustje () is a village in the Vipava Valley south of Ajdovščina in the traditional Inner Carniola region of Slovenia. It is now generally regarded as part of the Slovenian Littoral. Name The name ''Ustje'' is derived from the common noun ''ustje'' 'river mouth', referring to the location where Jovšček Creek joins the Vipava River. Some sources also claim that the name may originate from Saint Justus, to whom the parish church in the settlement was dedicated in 1766; however, this is linguistically unlikely. Compare also Ustje in the Municipality of Ig. History The oldest monument in the village is the 17th-century church, built on a small hill dedicated to John the Evangelist. Ruins of walls indicate that the site must have been used as a fortification during Ottoman raids. On August 8, 1942, Italian soldiers of the Julia division killed eight people and burned down the village. After the war, the village was rebuilt and August 8 is observed as a memorial day.
