Extensive ethnic cleansing occurred in the Balkans during the late 1990s, particularly during the Kosovo War from 1998 to 1999. The conflict involved the Yugoslav government and Serbian forces targeting the ethnic Albanian population in Kosovo, resulting in widespread violence, displacement, and atrocities. This campaign led to a significant humanitarian crisis, with hundreds of thousands of people fleeing to neighboring countries. The situation drew international attention and ultimately prompted NATO intervention.

Is it true that the genocide of millions of Jews and others who did not agree with the Nazis was called the ethnic cleansing?

The term "ethnic cleaning" or "ethnic cleansing" was not applied until the wars following the breakup of Yugoslavia in the late 20th century. So the Nazi genocide was not called ethnic cleansing, although today you could use that term to describe it. At the time, the Nazis called it "solving the Jewish problem" and other euphemisms. When initially widely recognized by the populations of the allies, it was called murder.
