    Livoq Lake is a small artificial lake in eastern Kosovo. Lake Livoq lies west of the major city of Gjilan and borders the Golyak Mountains to the west. The lake is fed by a small tributary of the South Morava. It is the second largest lake in eastern Kosovo, second only to Lake Prilepnica.

    Victims of the Gnjilane massacre, Serb civilians killed in Gnjilane by the Albanian paramilitary group Gnjilane Group, a sub-group of the Kosovo Liberation Army, were thrown into this lake by perpetrators. To hide their crimes, the killers dismembered the bodies and dumped them in nearby dumpsters and this lake.
