The OSCE Mission in Kosovo through a press statement condemned the attempt by a Kosovo Serb to demolish the minaret of a mosque in the village of Velekincë, in Gjilan municipality a few days ago. “Ambassador Schlumberger condemns attack on Velekinca Mosque and commends police and local leadership for response that keeps this incident isolated,” reads the statement. Also the Serbian Orthodox Church in Kosovo condemned the incident. “Strongly condemn this incident and would like to convey sincere solidarity to you and members of your community who have been hurt by this act of senseless vandalism,” reads a letter sent by Bishop Teodosije to head of the Islamic Community of Kosovo, Naim Ternava.
