1 feb 1998 año - Attacks in Likoshan and Cirez Mark the Beginning of Kosovo War

Descripción:

The Attacks on Likoshan and Qirez (Albanian: Sulmet në Likoshan dhe Qirez, Serbian: Napadi na Likošane i Ćirez) were large-scale police attacks that took place at the onset of the Kosovo War in the villages of Likoshan and Qirez.[5]

On 28 February 1998, the Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA) ambushed a unit of the Serbian police near Likoshan, killing four and seriously wounding two policemen. This prompted large-scale police operations in the villages of Likoshan and Qirez in the following day, leading to the killing of 4 KLA members and 26 Kosovo Albanian civilians in both villages.[5][6] The attack on Likoshan and Qirez was followed by the Attack on Prekaz on the following days.[5][7][8] The attacks on Likoshan and Qirez, as well as Prekaz, marked the beginning of the Kosovo War.
