"About 25 Serbian citizens fighting in Middle East"

BIA's action is continuous and it is aimed primarily at preventive identification of individuals staying in war zones and those who have already returned, Djordjevic said.

The number of people from Serbia in Syria and the Near East is small since as few as 25 Serbian citizens are in the region, he said and added that he does not have exact data concerning Kosovo and Metohija where he believes the problem is more prominent.

After the adoption of the law to ban Serbian citizens from participating in wars abroad, "a large number of them returned to the country," primarily those who were in Ukraine, he said.

Djordjevic also pointed to the connection between extremist Islamists from the Balkans and similar structures in Europe.
