Kosovo and Metohija, life in ruins

Life of Kosovo Serbs became more difficult than ever after NATO occupation of Serbian province Kosovo & Metohia, summer 1999. NATO support to Albanian terrorists, so called KLA, their proxies used to expand their power in the region, had a main purpose of forcing remaining Serbs to leave their homes quietly and these stories didn’t get headlines in MSM. Over the 250000 Serbs who lived in Kosovo before the war had to leave and sell their properties. The properties that were not sold and their owners had to flee Albanian terror now look like these on the photographs. Have you ever seen this in the news?
