Serbian attackers in Kosovo had weapons for 400 fighters. Serbian attackers in Kosovo had weapons for 400 fighters

Kosovo security forces say they have seized weapons and military equipment from some 400 fighters after gun battles with Serbian paramilitaries last year.

Moreover, an evaluation of seized documents and military weapons proves that they were equipped by the Serbian state and that they have close ties to the apparatus of Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic. according to a research report by the Kosovo government. The 51-page document from the Kosovo Foreign Ministry, for which photos and videos, datasets and identity cards were examined, was made available to the German news agency on Monday. According to this information, it was shared with international agencies some time ago.

In its investigation, the Kosovo government lists seized weapons of war seized in the presence of the Kosovo Protection Force KFOR and the EU rule of law mission Eulex. These include two armored trucks, 29 all-terrain vehicles, 66 assault rifles, 80,000 rounds of ammunition, as well as mortars, hand grenades, mines, plastic explosives, sniper rifles and communications equipment. The origin and production dates – some as far back as 2022 – could therefore also be reconstructed on the basis of the accompanying documents.

Tensions in recent years reached a peak on September 24 last year when a 30-strong, heavily armed Serbian commando force fought battles with Kosovo police in the town of Banjska near Mitrovica in Serb-inhabited northern Kosovo. Three Serb attackers and a Kosovo police officer were killed.

Kosovo Serb politician and businessman Milan Radoicic claimed responsibility for this attack. He claimed that he carried out the action on his own initiative and had not informed any official authorities in Serbia. However, the government in Pristina considers it impossible that Radoicic acted without help. The investigative report states that the goal of the Serbian attackers was to clear a corridor so they could send more military supplies.

The report also warns about Serbia’s cooperation with the Russian state and President Vladimir Putin:

“If the West continues to allow Vucic to escalate and does not take unequivocal, clear steps to deter Vucic and Putin from further escalations, the Balkans could descend into war again.”
