[REGNUM] In the town of Zvecan, in northern Kosovo and Metohija, on 13 October, militants calling themselves the "special police of Kosovo" severely injured a local Serb and received minor injuries. This was reported by the Kosovar media in Serbian.

"The victim is injured by a firearm in the chest area. His scapula and rib are affected, and we are preparing for the operation. The victim is in the intensive care unit, he is in serious condition," Zlatan Elek, a surgeon at the Clinical Center in Kosovska Mitrovica, told Kosovo Online .

According to the newspaper, the wounded Serb was shot in the back.

Meanwhile, the police officers of the separatist Kosovo began to leave Zvecan. On the way of their retreat, cartridge cases from live ammunition are visible.

Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic urgently went to the city of Raska on the administrative line between central Serbia and Kosovo to meet with representatives of the Kosovo Serbs, the RTS TV channel reports.

Recall that on October 13 in the morning the so-called special police of Kosovo broke into the north of the province, inhabited by Serbs, under the pretext of fighting smuggling. The militants entered shops and pharmacies, broke shelves with goods. Disgruntled Serbs protested and blocked some streets in northern Mitrovica and in Zvecan.

Albanian militants ransack shops and pharmacies in northern Kosovo

[REGNUM] In the north of Kosovo and Metohija, under the pretext of fighting economic crime, early in the morning on October 13, militants of the so-called special police of Kosovo, "ROSU", again broke into. This is reported by the Serbian media.

They closed several shops in the northern part of Kosovska Mitrovica and in neighboring Zvecan, prompting protests from the residents of that city, who blocked individual streets with trucks.

Citizens blocked the bridge over the Ibar River. The separatists tried to break into the city center, and the residents tried to prevent it. Police used tear gas to disperse the protesters, RTS reported.

"They are breaking into warehouses, shops, pharmacies are not working," an eyewitness in the northern part of Mitrovica told the TV channel, describing the actions of the so-called special police of Kosovo.

In the meantime, ROSU published a message stating that "early in the morning, a police operation began to cross the smuggled goods."

Recall that the ROSU militants in September occupied the Yarine and Brnjak checkpoints in the north of Kosovo and Metohija under the pretext of implementing the Reciprocity Agreement signed between Belgrade and Pristina in 2016 and concerning the rules for the use of license plates in Kosovo and central Serbia. Then the disgruntled Serbs blocked these checkpoints. The blockade lasted 10 days, until the representatives of Belgrade and Pristina signed an interim agreement on the use of license plates in Brussels.
