context_page_description: A series of war crimes were committed during the Kosovo War. The forces of the Slobodan Milošević regime committed rape, killed many Albanian civilians and expelled them during the war, alongside the widespread destruction of civilian, cultural and religious property. According to the Human Rights Watch, the vast majority of the violations from January 1998 to April 1999 were attributable to Serbian police or the Yugoslav army. Violations also included abuses committed by the Kosovo Liberation Army, such as kidnappings, organ theft and summary executions of members of Serbian community, members of other minorities and Albanians who were considered traitors.
context_section_description: An estimated 200,000 Serbs and Roma fled Kosovo after the war. Romani people were also driven out after being harassed by Albanians. The Yugoslav Red Cross registered 247,391 mostly Serb refugees by November 1999.
