Kosovo and Serbia row over monastery gun battle - BBC News

Authorities in Kosovo say they’ve taken control of a Serbian Orthodox monastery in the north of the territory.

It ends a stand-off there between ethnic Serb gunmen and police.

The government is suspected of carrying out a night-time attack in which a policeman and three of the gunmen died.

Kosovo declared independence in 2008 but Serbia - along with Belgrade's key allies China and Russia - does not recognise it.
