In northern Kosovo, Albanians paved a road through an old Serbian cemetery
Near the Church of St. Demetrius of the Serbian enclave of Kosovo (North) Mitrovica, Albanian builders dug a road through the Serbian cemetery from 1912 to 1945.

"Serbian list".
Politicians added that the residents of Mitrovica and the entire Serbian people of Kosovo are outraged by this shameful, inhumane and anti-civilization procedure
“This practice must be stopped as soon as possible, and the situation on the ground returned to its previous state, to cooperation with the priests of the Raska-Prizren diocese of the Serbian Orthodox Church,” the document says.
