Fascist WW2-era flag shown on Croatian state TV

The Ustasha regime was in power in the Independent State of Croatia (NDH) - a WW2 Nazi-allied entity that set up and operated death camps for Serbs, Jews, and Roma, including in Jasenovac.

Zagreb-based website Idenx is reporting that the difference between the Ustasha-era flag and the one in use in Croatia today is the big capital letter "U" in the upper left corner of the former, while the checkerboard on its coat of arms starts with a white, instead of a red field.

And while the HRT reporter was talking about the game and the supporters, the camera zoomed in on the flag that had clearly visible fascist symbols. The flag also had the word "Rama" written on it - "so it is presumed the supporters came from this town in Bosnia-Herzegovina."
