Albanians stone Serb schools in Kosovska Kamenica

The schools were stoned by Albanian youths who, the night before, hung flags featuring inappropriate content on the school fence

Albanian perpetrators stoned the building housing Serb schools in Kosovska Kamenica last night around 9 pm. Three Serb educational institutions are located there - an elementary, and two high schools.

"Fortunately, at the time of the incident, there were no students there, but this incident, like many previous ones, has distressed parents and their children," says a statement issued by the Office for Kosovo and Metohija.

According to eyewitnesses, the schools were pelted with stones by Albanian youths who the night before hung flags featuring inappropriate content on the school fence.

"Obviously, a climate is being created in Kosovo and Metohija in which the Serbs are no longer safe in schools, in healthcare centers, in their houses, in their churches, because there is no type of Serb building that has not been looted, stoned, searched, ransacked, burned... This incident is evidence that the wave of violence and pressure against the Serb people generated and initiated by the authorities in Pristina is reflected and transmitted to the youngest generations. This creates an atmosphere in which it is even desirable and welcome to attack Serbs and stone them and where no one will be held accountable for that," the Office continued, and added:

"Instead of peaceful coexistence and development of mutual tolerance, respect and diversity, the Pristina politicians led by Albin Kurti are creating an atmosphere in which it is legitimate to attack the Serbs, in which, when a member of the so-called KSF shoots at Serb children, he gets released, and in which no one is held accountable for the shooting of Serbs, for the beating of Serb teenagers Dara and Kristijan, for the desecrated Serb cemeteries.

In such a climate, the international community is merely a silent observer of the increase in ethnically motivated violence against the Serb people, instead of clearly and publicly taking a stance against such actions and taking steps to protect the Serbs, which it is under obligation to do, according to its mandate."
