Ljuboten incident

2001 military attack in Macedonia

The Ljuboten clashes,, also referred to as the Ljubotenski Bacila massacre,, happened on 10 August, 2001, when a Macedonian Army truck convoy composed of reservists ran over a landmine near the village of Ljuboten, killing eight men. Immediately after the attack fighting between Albanian rebels and Macedonian forces erupted. The Macedonian government officially blamed the NLA for the attack. The leader of the NLA, Ali Ahmeti, did not confirm NLA involvement in planting the mines, suggested the devices might have been placed by government forces to prevent rebel crossings, and expressed his regret at the incident.
