Tragedy with 59 victims, the head of the Kocani Municipality resigns: They were

Ljupco Papazov, the mayor of Kocani, has resigned after the tragedy with 59 victims and 155 injured.

Papazov, through a reaction, expressed that the shock and pain will last a lifetime.

“There are no words that can describe the pain we all feel. Those children were our children. I knew most of them, I knew their families and some of them were family friends. The shock and heartbreak I feel will last my whole life. This tragedy has left Kocani and Macedonia in darkness and the void that is left is unbearable.

"I demand from all competent institutions to investigate the responsibility of all those involved! Failure to act is also a responsibility. All details must be investigated, all omissions must be found and all persons who contributed to this tragedy must be held accountable. I place myself fully at the disposal of the institutions. Although by law I had no direct authority in this case, I am prepared to answer all questions about everything, as well as about my personal actions ," Papazov wrote.
