The explosion in North Mitrovica, analysts say that the perpetrators are not known, but the causes are known

A few minutes after midnight on Saturday, an explosion was heard on "Perandori Dushan" street, in the center of North Mitrovica.

An explosion was heard in the city north of the Ibër river, but also in the southern part of Mitrovica on Saturday after midnight.

The suspicions are that it was a hand grenade, while the road where it exploded is located almost in the center of Northern Mitrovica.


The case has been confirmed by the Kosovo Police, while it is not yet known who the perpetrators are.

"There was an explosion in the north of Mitrovica, on the street 'Perandori Dushan', there was some damage to the windows of a house, but no other damage. Not even in humans. It means the explosion was on the street, not in the yard of a house, and thus we cannot say that it was a predetermined target. While we have no suspects, the Police is conducting investigations, relevant units have gone to the scene, while in consultation with the Prosecutor, they have proceeded with 'causing general danger'", said Veton Elshani, deputy. director of the Regional Police in the North.

Who is behind this attack is not known, but experts in the field of security say that the causes are more or less known.

"They are enough to keep the situation alive, that is, they are interested in ensuring that there is no peace in the north of Kosovo. However, the actual situation shows that the Kosovo Police and other security structures are already operating in the north of Kosovo", said Avni Islami, an expert in the field of security.

Islam also declares that the isolated incidents in the northern municipalities are also used for internal political interests in Serbia.

"Vucic's party, the successors of Milosevic, is trying to win back votes and gain power through nationalization. And to show that the situation in the north of Kosovo is not good and that the Serbs there are not treated properly by the state of Kosovo", he continues.

Exactly one week ago, almost at the same time, detonations or explosions were heard in the center of the city, but they did not cause any damage or injuries./RTV Dukagjini/
