Kosovo Liberation Army
The government’s actions led to the ethnic Albanian population banning together in 1991, called the Kosovo Liberation Army. By the summer of 1998, the group started to take deadly action. This group was responsible for the assassination of many Serbian police officers and civilians.
Things Got Worse
The KLA took down four more Serbs in January of 1999. This caused a quick reaction from the government, who killed 45 ethnic Albanians after encircling the village. One of the casualties was a child, and this was simply tragic.
