Blockades in the north have entered the 16th day
The barricades placed in the north of the country for sixteen days now continue to make life difficult for the citizens in that part, while the roads towards the border of Jarinja and Bërnjak are blocked.
There is an increased presence of KFOR members in both directions of the borders with Serbia.
The Kosovo Police has extended its checkpoints in the Mitrovica-Leposavic direction in order to prevent criminal activities, but thus also ensuring free movement.
Members of the Kosovo Police are continuing their patrols in areas with a mixed population in the north of Mitrovica, offering order and security to all citizens without distinction.
The overall security situation in the north of the country is currently calm.
The Minister of Internal Affairs, Xelal Svecla, three days ago reiterated from Mitrovica that the police have capacities and are ready to remove the barricades, however, they are waiting for an answer from KFOR, so nothing has been decided yet such.
