Tear gas used against Albanians protesting against Serb IDPs

A group of ethnic Albanians in the town of Djakovica on Friday broke through a police cordon set up to provide security for visiting Serb IDPs.

The Serbs in question, who had been driven out of their homes in Djakovica and elsewhere in Metohija, today visited the town to celebrate the Orthodox Christian holiday of the Dormition of the Mother of God at the Serb Orthodox Church (SPC) monastery of Uspenje Presvete Bogorodice (Holy Mother Assumption).
