The Niš incident was a friendly fire incident during World War II involving American and Soviet forces. On 7 November 1944, United States Army Air Forces fighters strafed a Red Army convoy and airbase near Niš, Yugoslavia, which resulted in an air battle over the area between American and responding Soviet Air Force fighters. More than thirty Russian soldiers were killed on the ground. Two American P-38 Lightning and two Soviet Yak-9 fighters were shot down in the air battle, and a third Yak-9 fell to Soviet antiaircraft fire.
