Kosovar Interior Minister Skender Hyseni says there have been no recorded cases in the past year of citizens joining the Islamic State militant group in Syria and Iraq.

“It is now a year that we did not record any case of the departure of the citizens of Kosovo in foreign wars,” Hyseni said on August 24, adding that authorities should still not be “comfortable.”

Pristina has come under pressure for a perceived failure to crack down on Middle East-funded Islamic charities and radical religious figures blamed on young Kosovars joining extremist groups.
