The Ground Safety Zone (Serbian: Копнена зона безбедности, Kopnena zona bezbednosti; Albanian: Zona e Sigurisë Tokësore) was a 5-kilometre-wide (3.1 mi) demilitarized zone (DMZ) established in June 1999 after the signing of the Kumanovo agreement which ended the Kosovo War.[4] It bordered the area between inner Republic of Serbia in the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (FRY) and Kosovo (governed by the UN).[5][6]
