STORYLINE
Serbia put its armed forces on display on Friday, staging military exercises in the town of Nis.
Large crowds turned out to watch fighter jets, helicopters and tanks taking part in simulated attacks on targets.
Although the exercises took place amid heightened tensions in the region ahead of Kosovo's expected declaration of independence, officials in Belgrade made clear they had been scheduled long in advance.
The exercises, dubbed "Sretenje 2008", marked Serbia's Army Day.
Top military and state officials attended the event.
The army chose Sretenje for the exercises to mark the military success achieved in the First Serbian Uprising, which led to the rebirth of the Serbian army and state in the 19th century.
