“The UK is deploying around 200 soldiers from the 1st Battalion of the Princess of Wales’s Royal Regiment to Kosovo, joining another 400 British soldiers already exercising in the region. Further reinforcements will be provided from other allies,” said NATO spokesman Dylan White.

“This decision comes after a violent attack on Kosovo police on September 24 increased tensions in the region,” he said.
NATO once again called for calm, and asked Belgrade and Pristina to resume dialogue as soon as possible because “that is the only way to achieve lasting peace ,” Mr. White said.
A Kosovo police officer was killed on September 24 in an ambush in northern Kosovo. A gun battle ensued between Kosovo police special forces and heavily armed Serb gunmen.
It is also one of the most serious escalations in Kosovo in recent years.
Serbia refuses to recognise the independence of Kosovo - its former southern province - after NATO helped end a decade of conflict with its bombing campaign.
