There are also quite a few mosques where we’ve turned the power off, and Catholic churches. The same rules apply to all of them,” he said. The spokesman added that power would be restored to Gracanica once an agreement was signed with KEK and once the bills were paid. Gracanica monastery (FoNet, archive)
