Attacks on Serbs in Kosovo and Metohija are continuing, that causes worries and concerns, stated Minister for Local Administration in the Kosovo government Ljubomir Maric. He stressed that police vigilance has been stepped up to the highest level, that police wares bullet proof vests and that vehicle police patrols are more frequent.
