Kosovo PM Haradinaj says on Twitter ‘anti-smuggling and organised crime operation’ is under way in northern Kosovo.

Serbia has ordered its troops to full alert as tensions soar in the Balkans amid reports that heavily armed Kosovo police entered Serb-populated regions of the former Serbian province and made several arrests.

Serbia’s state TV reported shots were heard and tear gas was used as Kosovo’s special police “burst into” a village in northern Kosovo with armoured vehicles early in the morning.

The region bordering Serbia is 90 percent populated by Serbs, who refuse to be part of Kosovo.
