Novak Djokovic's wife Jelena reacted to a seven-year-old being killed during the attack on an elementary school in Zagreb. The Precko Elementary School in the Croatian capital was the venue of a knife attack orchestrated by a 19-year-old.

Unfortunately, a seven-year-old girl was stabbed to death while eight others were injured. These include a teacher, who is in a critical condition after suffering severe injuries.

Candles were lit in memory of the seven-year-old casualty, and pictures of this were shared on Instagram. One picture consisted of a letter in Croatian that translates to:

"Somewhere over there, under the clouds."

Novak Djokovic's wife shared this image on her Instagram Stories, with her caption reading:

"Zagreb," followed by an emoji of a broken heart.

This isn't the first time Novak Djokovic's wife has expressed her sadness over a tragic incident, as she and her husband both paid their respects to the victims of a shooting spree in an elementary school in Serbia's capital Belgrade in 2023.
