Borba, or Борба in Serbian Cyrillic alphabet, (Serbian language and Croatian language for struggle or combat) is a Serbian newspaper, formerly the official newspaper of the League of Communists of Yugoslavia (during the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia).

It was originally published in Croatia form Zagreb from 1922. After the World War II liberation by the Partisans, its publication moved to Belgrade. After 1948, the newspaper was also published simultaneously in Zagreb. For a long time, Borba alternated pages in Serbian Cyrillic alphabet and Croatian Latin alphabet in the same edition.

Borba briefly reappeared in Belgrade in 2008-2009. It was published by "Izdavačko preduzeće Novine Borba" using the Latin alphabet but due to poor sales (less than 3,000 copies per day) it ceased publication after less than a year.
