The constitutive session of the Kosovo Assembly, originally scheduled for yesterday at 11:00, was postponed to 20:00 following a bomb threat warning regarding a potential explosion inside the building of the Kosovo legislative institution.

The MPs and the media present were evacuated by the Kosovo Police, who later confirmed that the bomb threat was false, reports KosovaPress.

Acting Minister of Internal Affairs, Xhelal Sveçla, stated in a Facebook post that the source of the fake bomb threat has been identified, and according to him, the investigation leads to Serbia

Sveçla said the threat was traced to Serbia and originated from a number registered with the MTS telecommunications company while the phone number belongs to Serbian citizen Lazar Zivkovic, and in some profiles related to this number, a photo of the war criminal, Ratko Mladic, was found.

"Kosovo’s institutions are treating the case with the highest priority and will seek international cooperation to ensure the arrest and prosecution of those behind the threat as soon as possible. The perpetrators and threat makers hiding in Serbia, despite support from the Serbian state, will not escape accountability," Sveçla wrote.

We recall that yesterday the 42nd attempt to constitute the Kosovo Assembly also failed, while the next session is scheduled to be held tomorrow at 11:00. /KosovaPress.
