Assassination Attempt on Milan Obrenović
- When
- 6 July 1899 [O.S. 24 June 1899]
- Where
- Belgrade, Serbia (inferred from legacy row; not stated in supplied passages)
A Radical Party member attempted to kill Milan Obrenović on 6 July [O.S. 24 June] 1899, during the Orthodox holiday of Ivanjdan. No supplied passage names the city; Belgrade is inferred from the legacy row.
The attack occurred against the backdrop of pro-Democratic opposition blaming Milan for his son King Alexander's increasingly authoritarian rule. The attempt is dated 6 July [O.S. 24 June] 1899, the Orthodox holiday of Ivanjdan. The legacy row places the event in Belgrade, Serbia, but no supplied passage states the attempt occurred there; the Belgrade article describes the city only generally. The legacy claims that Milan was uninjured and began a campaign to arrest radicals are unsupported and omitted.
