1999, what is the action of Russian airborne troops to seize Pristina airport?

1999, Russia sent airborne troops to occupy Pristina airport! So what is the specific situation of this operation? In fact, Russia and NATO have been arguing about which countries the international peacekeeping forces should be stationed in and which countries the international peacekeeping forces should be stationed in. So Russia decided to turn passivity into initiative, so they sent airborne troops to seize Sridji Airport in Pristina! This airport is of great strategic significance, and many countries are eyeing it.

1On the night of June, 1999, the Russian troops in Bosnia and Herzegovina suddenly received instructions from their superiors, asking them to immediately assemble 200 airborne troops and go to Slidzic airport! They need to occupy the airport before NATO troops arrive, and they need to make strict arrangements. People say that the commander-in-chief of this operation is Putin, but this statement has not been proved exactly, but it is the most credible statement that people have guessed so far.

After the assembly of 200 airborne troops, immediately take a light jeep, bring the necessary equipment and food, as well as some excellent weapons and equipment, and immediately go to the airport! This temporary force soon arrived at the border of Bosnia and Herzegovina, where it met soldiers from the United States, but this army ignored the existence of American soldiers, broke through the checkpoint and went straight to Sridji airport! In fact, American soldiers had no idea of their actions before this. After the mission was completed, the Russian officers got the exact news. It turns out that these American soldiers didn't know their actions until the Russian airborne troops broke through! However, when American soldiers told the top leader about the number of people who broke through, the number of equipment and the direction of travel, the top leader immediately understood Russia's intention! Shortly after the Russian army left, the British army also rushed from the assembly area to Sridji airport in Pristina, and the two armies set off for the airport respectively. At this time, speed determines victory.

Russian troops arrived at the airport before dawn. At this time, the Serbian soldiers stationed at the airport were excited to see the arrival of the Russian army, asked why the Russian army had come now, and said that it had been waiting for a long time. Serbian soldiers don't wear soldiers' clothes, they all wear ordinary people's clothes. After seeing the Russian army, they also handed over the airport to each other at the first time. According to Russian soldiers, on the way to the airport, they met many residents of the Men's League. When they saw the army, they cheered and threw flowers at them. After Russian airborne troops arrived at the airport, with the help of Serbian soldiers, they were quickly deployed in every corner of the airport and blocked the whole airport. Everyone is racing against time, because they know that if they don't hurry, NATO troops are likely to arrive in the next second, and they must occupy this strategic place before receiving new instructions!

When Russian airborne troops were still deploying the airport, British troops were still on the road. Their order was to occupy the airport before the Russians, but by this time they were already late. However, it is also mentioned in the order that if the Russians preemptively occupy them, they will be driven away, but we have no way of knowing how they will drive away the Russian army. Finally, the British army finally arrived at the airport, but the Russian soldiers had been waiting here for a long time and had a rest for several hours. When the British arrived, they were faced with Russian soldiers' guns. At this time, the British were not timid and immediately let the Russians leave, but the Russian soldiers were not vegetarians and decisively rejected each other!

After that, the British commander applied to the superior, who was the supreme commander of the NATO alliance, Clark from the United States! Clark ordered them to destroy the Russians at once, which surprised the British soldiers. We should know that the war between the two sides is not Clark's decision, but needs to be decided by the NATO Supreme Council. The NATO Supreme Council should not give such an order, so the commander at that time refused this order because he didn't want his soldiers to be responsible for the outbreak of World War III. Finally, Russia succeeded in this operation!
