One Kosovo policeman was killed and another wounded in a shooting in a village in northern Kosovo on Sunday morning, Kosovo Prime Minister Albin Kurti was quoted as saying by Reuters.
“As of now, our police force continues to be fired with weapons of various calibers,” Kurti said in a Facebook post, describing the incident as a terrorist act.

Last week, EU-led talks to normalize relations between the former enemies from the Kosovo war stalled.
