Suspicions of Serbian drones in Kosovo flew over High Security Prison. KFOR and police intensify checks

Aircraft that do not belong to Kosovo institutions or KFOR have flown over at least two highly sensitive institutions in the country for more than a month.
These drones, suspected to be from Serbia, flew over the High Security Prison and, according to television sources, the size of the drones resembled agricultural drones.
One of the points where Serbian drones are suspected of taking pictures is the Dumosh airport, which was recently taken over by the Kosovo Security Force and is one of the closest points to the border with Serbia that belongs to the Kosovo Army.
Dukagjini has possessed these images since the beginning of the investigation into this case and initially the peacekeeping mission in Kosovo, KFOR, had confirmed that they had begun monitoring them and then, without specifying in detail who they belonged to, said that they did not pose a threat to security.
"Regarding your questions, after reviewing the matter, our observations have not revealed any threat to security in the area. We will continue to closely monitor the situation in close cooperation with security stakeholders," KFOR said, reports RTVDukagjini.
The Kosovo Police was initially notified of their existence in Kosovo institutions and the same, in coordination with KFOR, is dealing with this issue.
According to the Police Director, there are also other cases where suspicious drones have been spotted.
"KFOR is responsible for monitoring Kosovo's airspace. There has been some information about flights that citizens have seen and we engage our units as needed, but in that area, we have not had any cases where we have shot down any drones. We have notified KFOR, they are dealing with this work and we are working in cooperation with them," said Hoxha.
The information had also gone to the other institution responsible for airspace in Kosovo, the Civil Aviation of Kosovo, which also confirmed that they had received the notification about the unauthorized operations of unmanned aerial vehicles over the areas mentioned by the television.
The Government of Kosovo gave the former Dumoshi airport to the KSF a year ago, arguing that it is of particular strategic importance for deploying the country's military capacities in that area.
Meanwhile, in the High Security Prison, in addition to many convicts, there are also terrorism suspects in the 2023 Banjska attack.
