The Bloody Christmas (Bulgarian: Кървав Божик, romanized: Karvav Bozhik; Macedonian: Крвав Божиќ, romanized: Krvav Božikj) was a campaign in which several hundred people with pro-Bulgarian orientation were killed as collaborationists by the Yugoslav communist authorities in the Socialist Republic of Macedonia in January 1945. Thousands of others who retained their pro-Bulgarian sympathies or views, suffered severe repression as a result.
