The police is engaged in maintaining public order and peace, providing security 
to citizens, freedom of movement and undertakes police measures in accordance 
with the situation and events in the north, which remain the goals of the 
police, it was stated on the Facebook profile of the Kosovo Police. 

"Protests are taking place in the north of the country today, and in connection 
with that, Kosovo Police recognizes the right to public gatherings through 
peaceful protest, but by official duty takes care of the preservation of public 
order and peace, as well as performing the duties defined by the Constitution 
and laws of Kosovo", it is published in a statement. 

They add that the citizens gathered in an organized manner in front of the 
municipal buildings in the north, such as Leposavić, Zubin Potok and Zvečan, as 
a sign of protest. 

"Citizens gathered in front of the municipal buildings in the north, such as 
Leposavić, Zubin Potok and Zvečan for a protest, where in front of the Zvečan 
municipal building, protesters tried to forcibly enter the municipal building. 
The police were forced to use legal means such as tear gas to stop the 
protesters and bring the situation under control," it said. 

As they emphasized, the protests continue in the northern municipalities, and 
Kosovo Police is managing the situation. 

"At the same time, we call on citizens to pay attention when calling for 
protests, to protest peacefully and not fall for provocations," it was pointed 
out on the profile of the Kosovo Police.
