Kosovo stepped up security measures around "critical" infrastructure Saturday after an explosion at a key canal feeding two of its main power plants, as neighboring Serbia rejected accusations it had staged the blast.

The explosion occurred Friday near the town of Zubin Potok in a Serb-dominated area in Kosovo's troubled north, damaging the canal supplying water to cooling systems at two coal-fired power plants that generate most of Kosovo's electricity.

Visiting the site on Saturday, Prime Minister Albin Kurti announced that police had arrested several people in connection with the attack.

Law enforcement "carried out searches" and "collected testimony and evidence, and the criminals and terrorists will have to face justice and the law," he said.

Sounds a bit ‘asymmetrical’. Sorry Neocons, you started it!

I never understood what the OTHER war was about...but I remember it took up a lot of news time. Time for another? I’ll sit it out.

It looks like Pooty Poot is beginning an asymmetric campaign on the neocons’ eurotrash minions. What else is nice in Europe that can be broken? How will the communists of the European Soviet Union respond?

The “other” war was about the usual in the Balkans; Muslim vs Christian. Been the same off and on for +/- 600 years. Rinse and repeat. FYI, Kosovo is predominately (85%) muslim, Serbia is predominately (85%) Christian.

After the NATO/UN Ethnic Cleansing.

Kosovo, Province of Serbia, used to be Majority Christian.

I remember the news - good guys vs bad guys - the sniping from the hills at folks who were shopping - Sarajevo? Close to when the Olympics were to start or had happened? Mass graves were found? Just snippets from here and there....

Thanks.

The problem with that whole peninsula is that it’s so damn balkanized.

“… two coal-fired power plants…”

Where was Greta Thunburg when this happened?
