25 NATO peacekeepers injured in clash with ethnic Serbs in northern Kosovo
Summary by NewsWall May 30 23
- The NATO-led KFOR peacekeeping force reported that 25 of its troops were injured on Monday during clashes with ethnic Serbs in northern Kosovo. The Serbs were attempting to take over the offices of one of the municipalities where ethnic Albanian mayors took up their posts last week.
- Several Kosovo police vehicles and one belonging to journalists sustained damage.
- On Monday, the Kosovar police and the NATO-led Kosovo Force (KFOR) were observed protecting municipal buildings in Zvecan, Leposavic, Zubin Potok and Mitrovica, four municipalities in the north that held early elections last month.
- According to Goran Rakic, a local Serb politician, the Serbs want both new mayors to resign and vacate their offices, as they consider them 'illegal and illegitimate sheriffs'. Additionally, they demand that the special police leave northern Kosovo.
