Likoshan (Albanian: Likoshani, Serbian Cyrillic: Ликошане/Likošane) is a village in the Glogovac municipality of Kosovo, in the region of Drenica. It was the site of a battle between the KLA and Serbian forces, and a massacre, in February 1998 during the Kosovo War. It is inhabited by Albanians.

Notes[]

  1. ^ Kosovo is the subject of a territorial dispute between the Republic of Kosovo and the Republic of Serbia. The Republic of Kosovo unilaterally declared independence on 17 February 2008. Serbia continues to claim it as a part of its own sovereign territory. The two governments began to normalise relations in 2013, as part of the 2013 Brussels Agreement. Kosovo is currently recognised as an independent state by 97 out of the 193 United Nations member states. In total, 112 UN member states have recognised Kosovo at some point, of which 15 states later withdrew their recognition.
