Serbian authorities evacuate over 1,300 residents as experts remove a 1,000-kilo NATO bomb from a construction site in Nis, southern Serbia. The bomb, a remnant from the 1999 NATO bombing campaign, was safely transported for destruction. Police, firefighters, and medical teams ensure a secure operation. The bomb, with a 430-kilogram explosive charge, poses a significant threat. NATO's 1999 bombing aimed to halt Serbian leader Slobodan Milosevic's crackdown on Kosovo separatists. Notably, Nis suffered heavy casualties during the campaign, including a deadly incident at a central market.
