Conflicts between adherents of the Orthodox Church and muslim minorities begins shortly thereafter.

Resolution 1244, that was released during an emergency NATO meeting, allows Russia to send more troops and equipment to the country.
Few days later, first troops enter Chernarus and participate in the largest Russian military operation since Afghanistan…
