• During the NATO bombing campaign in the spring of 1999, Novi Sad endured some of the most traumatic moments in its modern history. Although the declared objective of the air strikes was the destruction of military infrastructure and pressure on the Yugoslav government to withdraw from Kosovo and Metohija, the civilian population suffered profound and lasting consequences. Among the most tragic events was the systematic destruction of the city’s bridges over the Danube. These bridges were vital transportation links and an integral part of everyday life in Novi Sad. Their collapse disrupted mobility, economic activity, and the social fabric of the city. More than physical structures, the bridges symbolized connection and continuity; their destruction left the city divided and marked by a deep sense of loss that remains etched in collective memory.
