Novi Sad

Novi Sad (population 270,000) is a city in northern Serbia, on the banks of Danube river, capital of the province Vojvodina and big industrial and cultural center.

Devastated by the NATO bombardment during the Kosovo War of 1999, Novi Sad was left without all of its three bridges, communications, water and electricity. Residental areas were cluster bombed several times and its oil refinery daily, causing severe pollution and widespread ecological damage.
