Germans are making it difficult, if not impossible, for Serbian monks to live in Kosovo. The monks cannot get food because the Albanians would kidnap and/or kill them if they venture out. If the Germans withold food the monks will starve.

OK, I now have some concept of what this is all about. Here are a few questions.

If all the Serbs are gone from this area, which I gather is the case, what is the congregation that is being served by the monks? Are they some contemplative order, or do they purport to have some other purpose for being where they are? The Serbs did some pretty nasty things in the Balkans in recent years, and they are pretty widely hated. The idea of payback, even against monks, shouldn't surprise anyone. Do the monks think they should be entitled to stay where the are and be protected by KFOR forever?
