"Ziade is following the development of the situation in the north of Kosovo with particular concern. It calls on the parties to refrain from further escalatory actions and to take urgent measures to restore calm. It underlines the need to find a solution within the framework of dialogue with the assistance of the EU," the mission said on Twitter.
As TASS reminds, the situation in four Serbian municipalities in the north of Kosovo and Metohija has escalated due to attempts to seize city administration buildings by Kosovo security forces.
According to local media, there was an arson attack on a police car in Zvecan municipality.
Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić previously brought the Serbian army to a state of maximum combat readiness due to the situation in Kosovo and Metohija due to Pristina's unilateral steps.
Serbian Defense Minister Milos Vučević confirmed that the country's army had urgently advanced to the administrative border.
In a clash with the police of the self-proclaimed republic in the north of Kosovo and Metohija, ten people received minor injuries due to the use of stun grenades, tear gas and batons.
