“Albanians plotting conflict between Serbia and Macedonia" (Novosti, B92)

Serbian intelligence services have received information of a risk of tension between Serbia and Macedonia, "in which Albanians would be involved." Apart from them, "a part of the authorities in Macedonia" is included in this scenario, Belgrade daily Vecernje Novosti writes. The newspaper said it learned that "the plan is for well-armed groups of Albanians to infiltrate the border zone between Serbia and Macedonia." Allegedly, they would be dressed in Serbian military or police uniforms. Their task would be to cross the Macedonian border in inaccessible parts of the territory and conduct reconnaissance, said the newspaper, referring to the information it received from "field operatives." These operatives also said "the plan then is to wait for the intruders in Serbian uniforms to be recorded - which would immediately lead to tensions, where Serbia would be accused of violating the territorial integrity and sovereignty of Macedonia, because this would be interpreted as its attempt to organize an armed rebellion in Macedonia."
