On January 15, 1999, Serbian forces barbarically killed and massacred 45 unarmed Albanians in the village of Reçak.
The former head of the OSCE monitoring mission in Kosovo, Ambassador William Walker, had described the Reçak massacre as a crime against humanity.
After the Reçak massacre, 48-hour fighting resumed between the KLA and Serbian forces for the dead bodies. Serbia wanted to eradicate the traces of the crime, but this attempt failed. The world saw the crime.
