The morning of November 26, 2019 was not ordinary for members of the Kosovo Security Force. They were ordered to leave and help Albania, because the country there has been hit by a 6.4 magnitude earthquake. People trapped under buildings, collapsed buildings and panic in all the families there, was caused by the event, which then became tragic for Albania, because dozens of people lost their lives, hundreds were injured and thousands more were indirectly affected by the devastating consequences of this earthquake.

The KSF search and rescue unit, and the K9 unit, which operates with dogs, would come to the aid of the residents of Durres and Thumana, where the earthquake had hit hardest.
