The 2000 unrest in Kosovo (Serbian: 2000 Немири на Косову, romanized: 2000 Nemiri na Kosovu; Albanian: 2000 Trazirat në Kosovë) was the result of the United Nations Interim Administration adopting Resolution 1244 on 10 June 1999. The unrest was fought between the Kosovo Force (KFOR), Kosovar Albanians, and Kosovar Serbs. It lasted somewhere from February 16, 2000 – June 6, 2000. An unknown number of Kosovar Albanians and Kosovar Serbs died along with an unknown number injured, while 1 Russian KFOR soldier died from shot wounds^[1] and UNMIK vehicles were burned during the unrest.
