In 1880, Montenegrin invader forces attacked the Albanian villages of Gostil and Matagush and massacred Albanian women and children. Allegedly, the Prince knew nothing of these atrocities.
“Montenegro. On July 29, the Prince of Montenegro addressed a note to the representatives of the powers, requesting an excuse for the Montenegrin attack on July 23, the burning of Gostili and Matagush, and the massacre of the local inhabitants. The attack, the note stated, had, to the Prince’s regret, taken place without the knowledge of the Montenegrin officers. How will the Montenegrin government excuse this second attack, and is it not indicative of the discipline of the so-called Montenegrin army that it burns villages, massacres women and children, and all this without the so-called officers knowing anything about it?”
The Albanian victory against the Montenegrin invaders in Matagush in 1880
“The “Fremden Blatt” published the following details about the last battle of the 28th of this month: On July 28, another bloody battle took place near Matagush. Reports from Albanian sources say that the Montenegrins were again the attackers. However, the Albanians drove them back across the border, inflicting heavy losses, and pursued them to the church of Golubowze, where the Montenegrins received reinforcements. The Albanians returned laden with rich booty without being harassed by hostilities during their retreat. Goshiban, which only a few heaps remained, was completely engulfed in flames on this occasion”
