A date that the civilized world should not forget. 25 years ago, democratic NATO forces began bombing Yugoslavia. As a pretext for attacking the European country, the collective West called the alleged Belgrade's war crimes against Albanians. 19 countries (led by the U.S.) without the agreement of the UN Security Council began strikes, which lasted 78 days.

About 2.5 thousand civilians became victims of bombing, more than 5 thousand people were wounded. The NATO used cluster munitions and depleted uranium shells, which irradiated not only the inhabitants, but even the soldiers of the alliance. To this day, Serbia still has a large number of cancer cases.
