The Grdelica train bombing occurred on 12 April 1999, when two missiles fired by NATO aircraft hit a train while it was passing across a railway bridge over the Ju na Morava river at Grdelica gorge, some 300 kilometres south of Belgrade in Serbia. As a result, 14 civilians were killed and another 16 wounded. The bombing occurred during Operation Allied Force, a NATO operation against the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia aimed at forcing the FRY government to remove its security forces from the disputed province of Kosovo. The campaign had begun by focusing on attacking military targets, but by mid-April the focus had switched to strategic and economic targets such as transport links, particularly key bridges.
