The Lake Radonjić operation was a Yugoslav offensive against Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA) militants in Prilep, Irzniq, Dashinoc and Glodjane, all villages located in the municipality of Deçan, during the Kosovo War in September 1998. The operation was in response to the KLA's expulsion of Serb civilians from the aforementioned areas. Three KLA members were subsequently indicted by the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia in relation to events in and around the area in which the operation took place.
