(ANSAmed) - BELGRADE/PRISTINA, 23 MAY - Last night, in Kosovo, in the village of Drenovac, some unknown people set fire to two houses belonging to Serbian refugees who have gone back to their country. None of the owners was in the two houses, that were nearly completely destroyed. The local Serbian community immediately spoke out against such fact and, according to some of its members, the message is clear: Serbs are not welcome and would better not go back to Kosovo. In Belgrade, both the Interior Ministries and the Ministry for Kosovo have strongly denounced the criminal action, asking the EU mission Eulex to intervene in order to find out the culprits. Meanwhile, in the Serbian part of Kosovska Mitrovica, the main urban centre in northern Kosovo whose inhabitants are mainly Serbian, a demonstration took place against the arrest, some days ago, of Jovica Miljkovic, a Serb accused of having deliberately destroyed some material and equipment used by Kosovo's police forces.(ANSAmed).
