Stipića livada, a place above Doljani, Jablanica municipality, is the place where on the morning of July 28, 1993, a crime was committed against 33 Croatian soldiers and 6 civilians who were killed and massacred by members of the RBiH Army, among whom the Mujahideen were mentioned.

On July 28, 1993, during the incursion into Doljane, the Army of Bosnia and Herzegovina murdered, mostly using cold weapons, 17 Croats in Doljani, and then 22 people in the Stipića meadow. Then 39 civilians and soldiers were slaughtered or shot in one of the most serious crimes committed against Croats in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

All the surviving inhabitants of the village, over 200 of them, mostly women and children, were arrested and taken to Jablanica, where they were detained until March 1, 1994, when they were exchanged.
