The lawsuit was filed by the law office from Nis, in cooperation with the Italian lawyer, who managed to prove that 70 Italian soldiers contracted cancer because of being exposed to depleted uranium during their stay in Kosovo.
More than 300 Italian soldiers may have died during the past 15 years from exposure without protection to depleted uranium during missions to Bosnia, Kosovo, Afghanistan and Iraq, while another 3.700 are sick for the same reason.
The law office from Nis will bear the costs of court fees, which are very high in our country in such cases, while in Italy they were free.
For now, there are about 2.300 requests from citizens who want to sue NATO.
"15 tons of depleted uranium were dumped on Serbia, more precisely on Kosovo and Metohija and the south of Serbia. Pec, Prizren, Urosevac, Djakovica suffered the most," lawyer Srdjan Aleksic said, adding that the suit included evidence from the US and World Health Organization on the effects of depleted uranium.
I thought Serbia would keep a low profile since cranky old Joe got in to power.
Then again no one said Serbs are smart.
I guess they are waiting for a [link] another visit.

Am I to assume you have kept records of the Albanian deaths you claim occurred in Kosova during the 1999 Humanitarian NATO bombing.

Humanitarian LOL. They killed thousands of your Albos and you call it humanitarian.
I have not kept any records but the Iraqis certainly have. They were bombed with depleted uranium munition and they have kept records of the terrible spike in cancers, birth defects etc. Unless you think that your Albos were protected by the force field of freedom and democracy then that could be different.

I’ll let you in on a little secret. Since the bombing of Kosovo the Albos have the highest level of leukemia suffers/deaths in Europe as a result of the depleted uranium, but the Kosova government does not keep records of such matters so as not to embarrass their western allies.
Understand now??

Why is it that no Albanian has contracted cancer due to depleted uranium in the warheads of missiles and bombs dropped on Kosova in 1999. It sounds to me, Serbia is filing this belated lawsuit because the US has deep pockets, though there is no proof of Serbia’s allegations.
