'''The Kosovo War''' (also known as Operation Allied Force) was fought in 1999 between [[Serbia]] and [[NATO]]. NATO forces, under the command of General [[Wesley Clark]], bombed the Serbs for 75 days to stop an alleged Serb campaign of ethnic cleansing against Kosovar [[Albania]]ns. While efforts were made to minimize civilian casualties and the Serbian military was genearlly well hidden to avoid taking much damage, the Serbs capitulated under increasing use of bombing and destroying industrial targets. Indeed, the damage to their economy continued far beyond the war's end.
