While the initial reporting on the earthquake in
Glas Slavonije did not indicate a severe event, within a few days it became apparent that the damage would be measured in billions of
Yugoslav dinars. On April 24, the newly-founded Disaster Protection Headquarters of the Osijek
kotar reported its initial findings of 17 billion dinars worth of damage to public and private buildings. A 5th grade pupil died when a staircase collapsed in the "Ivan Goran Kovačić" elementary school in Đakovo. At the end of April, official reports also listed one other fatality, but because the deceased person was not named, this information was not necessarily reliable. Another fatality was reportedly in Slavonski Brod, as well as a person in the village of
Karavukovo in the nearby western
Vojvodina. Another man from
Belgrade suffered a fatal stroke during the earthquake. The NCEI Global Historical Hazard Database cites 3 fatalities from this earthquake. In response to the earthquake, the government established a reconstruction fund, which managed to raise around 3 billion dinars in 1964. It disbursed the funds to the affected municipalities in the following ratios: Slavonski Brod 77%, Ðakovo 17% and
Slavonska Požega 6%. In the Đakovo region, the
Yugoslav People's Army sent 100 and then up to 200 tents to accommodate the people most affected, as well as food and clothing. The worst affected villages were
Musić,
Lapovci,
Hrkanovci,
Ovčara,
Paučje,
Slobodna Vlast,
Levanjska Varoš,
Vučevci and
Ivanovci. The damage included the destruction of 301 residential buildings and damage to 5,291 more. Nine schools were rendered unusable, affecting around 1,000 students, and 43 more were damaged, affecting about 8,000 more. The medical facilities in Đakovo were damaged to the extent that they had to be demolished, while significant damage was also recorded in several other villages, including on veterinarian stations, the
Đakovo Cathedral, and other historical churches. In the Slavonski Brod region, the worst affected places were the city itself, and the villages of
Ježevik,
Bukovlje,
Vranovci,
Podcrkavlje,
Podvinje,
Kindrovo and others, where more than half the building stock was damaged. In the city, over 500 buildings were damaged, including almost all of the schools, and the
Đuro Đaković and other factories. == Impact ==
