Kosovo police reported about two theft cases affecting the Serb community. A house belonging to the Serb returnee in the village of Brestovik, Pec municipality was burglarized, while the Serbian Orthodox Church of Saint Petka in the village of Suvi Do, Mitrovica North was broken into.

The Church in Suvi Do village was broken into; a certain amount of money was stolen while the furniture inside the church was demolished. The same church was the target of another theft two months ago, when the thieves stole a small amount of cash.

Deputy Director of the Office for Kosovo and Metohija, Damjan Jovic said that the delineation is something worth discussing at the moment, with the aim to reach a lasting peace, Tanjug news agency reported.

Jovic added question remains whether the discussion would occur or not, and what could be its result, since it does not depend only upon the good will from Belgrade.
