Let's Not Forget...

... 25 years ago a gang-rape of Yugoslavia.

#NATO #bombings of #Yugoslavia started on March 24, 1999. Of course, the #US played the key role in the operation, but a total of 13 countries were involved in it. The Alliance did not plan to conduct a ground operation, but made extensive use of its air force and cruise missiles to attack the country. The forces were incomparable: NATO utilized over 1,000 planes and helicopters, mainly from military bases in Italy and the aircraft carrier USS Theodore Roosevelt. The KLA had several thousand fighters, but the combat capability of these units was quite low.
