Wartime events Aftermath Aspects The Lužane bus bombing occurred on May 1, 1999, during the NATO bombing of Yugoslavia, when NATO AGM-114 Hellfire missiles fired from AH-64 Apache targeted a bridge in Kosovo hit a bus.
The bus was hit on the Lužane (near Podujevo) north of Pristina.
On that day, 46 civilians of Serb and Albanian ethnicity were killed.
[5] Amnesty International believes that NATO did not always meet its legal obligation in selection targets of attack, one of which includes bombing of this bridge in Lužane, where NATO forces failed to suspend the attack after it was evident that they had struck the civilians.
[6] The bus (Niš-Ekspres) was on a regular express service, linking Pristina and Niš.
