Documentary: Зaшto? ( Why?) - Revisiting NATO atrocities in Yugoslavia

Marking 15 years since the NATO invasion of Yugoslavia, Russia Today aired "Zashto?" ("Why?"), an exclusive documentary film produced by the channel's journalists.

Serbian Jelena Milincic and American Anissa Naouai talk to witnesses of the tragic events of 1999. The bombings of present-day Serbia were part of Operation Allied Force, which lasted 78 days and resulted in more than 2,000 civilian casualties, including 88 children. The Serbian government estimates that at least 2,500 people died and 12,500 were injured.

"Zashto?" premiered on RT International on March 24, 2014.

The alliance bypassed the UN under a "humanitarian" pretext, launching aggression that claimed hundreds of civilian lives and caused a much larger catastrophe than it averted.
