Two volleyball teams “Bukovica” from Ivanjica and “Ribnica” from Kraljevo were banned to enter Kosovo on Sunday, at Brnjak crossing point, Serbian media reported.

The teams were supposed to play matches within Regional League West in Zubin Potok. Their hosts were teams from Gracanica and Lipljan. This is yet another in a series of bans to the sport teams from central Serbia to enter Kosovo, KoSSev portal recalled.

Office for Kosovo and Metohija Director Marko Djuric reacting to the ban said “that this is yet another mindless and anti-civilization act by Pristina’s provisional institutions, which in continuity display unreasonable attitude towards youth, sport and the respect of basic human rights”.

Srpska Lista also in the strongest terms condemned the ban and urged world and European sports associations, but also representatives of the international community to raise their voices and influence Pristina in order not to repeat such acts.”
