Watch NATO Troops Enter Kosovo in Epic-Scale Military Operation – Uncut Footage (1999)

On 10 June 1999, ITN's cameras in Macedonia captured the first stages of Operation Joint Guardian, the deployment of NATO forces into Kosovo. The deployment of ground troops followed a three-month-long bombing campaign targetting Yugoslavian forces in Kosovo, which was itself prompted by Yugoslavia's ethnic cleansing of Albanians in the region. The bombing campaign led eventually, on 8 June, to Yugoslavia agreeing to withdraw its armed forces from Kosovo. Two days later (the same day this footage was filmed), the United Nations Security Council passed Resolution 1244 authorising an international civil and military presence in the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia and establishing the United Nations Interim Administration Mission in Kosovo (UNMIK). An ITN crew in Macedonia observed just some of the logistical and technological feats involved in moving a multinational peacekeeping force into a warzone. The NATO-led international peacekeeping force that was established in Kosovo, known as the Kosovo Force (KFOR), is still in place today. Its operations are being phasing out steadily as it hands over resposibility for the region to Kosovo's Security Force, established in 2009. #NATO #Kosovo #NorthAtlanticTreatyOrganisation #Yugoslavia #Albania #Macedonia #Intervention #Army #Military #MilitaryOperation #USArmy #BritishArmy #1990s #Tanks #Helicopter #Helicopters #Soldiers #Troops #Humanitarian #KFOR #UnitedNations #UNSC #UNSecurityCouncil #Epic #Frontline 00:00 Introduction 02:30 Convoy 03:27 The Airlift Begins 11:28 Killing Time 12:29 Boarding the Chinook 16:06 Blackhawks in Flight 17:15 US Troops Moving Out 19:18 Taking to the Air 28:03 Heavy Lifting 31:08 Something Heavier 38:30 Air to Air To license the footage featured in this clip, follow the link below: https://www.gettyimages.co.uk/videos/...
