Aleksandar Vucic said on Wednesday that he told Italy's ANSA agency "what he talks about publicly every day and did not speak about recognizing Kosovo."

A taxi driver from northern Mitrovica, who went missing three days ago and is suspected to have been killed, is a relative of Oliver Ivanovic.

Ksenija Bozovic, now the leader of Ivanovic's party, CI SDP, confirmed for the Kosova Press agency that the missing taxi driver is a relative of Ivanovic.

Serbian media reports that First Deputy PM and Foreign Minister Ivica Dacic received on Monday Deputy Commander of NATO Joint Force Command in Naples Lieutenant General Christian Juneau.

The Serbian government said in a press release that the interlocutors underlined that Serbia and NATO have a common interest of preserving peace and stability in the region, as well as the determination to further enhance partnership cooperation in all spheres of common interest.

An American official who will soon take over the position of an Assistant Secretary of State for Europe and Eurasia, Philip Reeker, has called on Pristina to abolish the tariffs, reports Serbian media quoting the portal nezavisen.mk.

According to the North Macedonia news portal nezavisen.mk he also called on Belgrade to focus on the strategic interest "instead of being aggressive in rejecting Kosovo."

"The provisional Pristina institutions PM saying that the so-called 'Kosovo Army' could enter the north of Kosovo is a threat to the entire region's peace," stated Serbian Defense Minister Aleksandar Vulin.

He told the public broadcaster, RTS, that the Serbian Army was "confident, strong and capable of preserving peace and stability throughout the country."

Our forces are disproportionately strong in relation to the need to prevent any possibility of anyone carrying out any attack or action against Serbia.

President Aleksandar Vucic said this on Thursday, while touring the Jablanica District.

"They are so much superior and convincing in every sense, professionally and in numbers," he stressed, adding that there were "more than enough of them" on the administrative line (with Kosovo), that they could intervene "at any moment."

Aleksandar Vucic, reacting threats from Pristina, said that "Medvedja and Sijarinska Banja" which he will visit during on Thursday, "will remain Serbia."

During his visit, the president also used the opportunity to, as he did in Vlasotince, urge citizens not to worry about the threats from Pristina.

Aleksandar Vucic continued on Thursday his "Future of Serbia" campaign in the Jablanica District, where he first visited a reconstructed elementary school.

The president, addressing a gathering, stated that the leadership in Pristina is irrational and irresponsible and that "you never know what can be expected of them."

Ana Brnabic says Pristina authorities' statements about Kosovo getting three municipalities in central Serbia have nothing to do with reality and sense.

The Serbian prime minister on Wednesday recommended them to try to get back into reality and to understand the rules of behaviour in the 21st century.

The Serbian Ministry of Interior (MUP) issued a statement late on Wednesday, following media reports that armed Albanians had stormed Kursumlija area villages.

As stated, the police station in Kursumlija received a report on Tuesday evening from workers in the area of the village of Rastelica that they had heard shooting "from the direction of the Autonomous Province (AP) of Kosovo and Metohija."
