According to the Government of Kosovo, the movements of the Serbian army were made from three different directions; units of the second brigade of the Serbian army have moved from the direction of Rashka towards the northern border of our country; the units of the Third Brigade of the Serbian army have moved from the Region of Nis towards the north-eastern border of our country and the units of the Fourth Brigade have moved from the Region of Vranje towards the eastern border of the Republic of Kosovo.

This deployment also includes the deployment of anti-aircraft systems and heavy artillery. Many times we have raised the concern about the existence of these 48 front bases of the Serbian army and gendarmerie and we have emphasized the already proven fact that these bases serve to support possible military aggression against the Republic of Kosovo.

The Government of the Republic of Kosovo has been in constant contact with the USA and the EU countries regarding this serious threat from Serbia and the reaction of the USA to this aggressive approach of Serbia has been immediate and direct. We call on President Vučić and the institutions of Serbia to immediately withdraw all military troops from the border line with Kosovo and to close and demilitarize the 28 forward military bases and 20 gendarmerie bases that pose a permanent threat to our country.

After the failure of the armed attack with the paramilitary formations led by Milan Radoicic, the march and deployment of Serbian military troops along the border with Kosovo is the next step of the institutions of Serbia to threaten the territorial integrity of our country and also the international military presence in Republic of Kosovo" , it is stated in the announcement of the government of Kosovo.
