History


See also: Bulgarian occupation of Serbia (World War I)

Several villages were burned down in Gostivar during 1912-16 by Serbian and Bulgarian forces.[2] Two of these villages were Reč, which had a population in 1900 of 140 Muslim Albanians and 150 Orthodox Albanians, and Strezimir which at that time was inhabited by 56 Muslim Albanians and 180 Orthodox Albanians.[3] Another such example is Štirovica.

On 26 November 2019, an earthquake struck Albania and Gostivar Municipality contributed humanitarian aid and teams of firefighters and doctors toward the relief effort for earthquake victims.[4]
