Brotnja (Serbian Cyrillic: Бротња)[1] is a village in Croatia. It is connected by the D218 highway.
During the Second World War, on 27 July 1941, Serb Communist insurgents and Chetniks attacked the village and committed a massacre of Croat civilians known as the Brotnja massacre.
On 27 March 2022 at 14:54 the ŽVOC Zadar received a call about a wildfire in the area. 6 hectares (15 acres) burned by the time it was put out at 17:00 by IVP Zadar.[4]
