KFOR commander Erhard Buehler says NATO had declared two crossings on the administrative line between Kosovo and Serbia a restricted military area. He threatened the use of lethal force in the case of attack on Jarinje and Brnjak. NATO declares crossings "restricted military areas" “I cannot exclude another attempt. Both gates are declared military restricted areas and the rules of engagement are very clear,” Buehler told Reuters in an interview. According to Buehler, the soldiers can employ lethal force, they can employ their weapons to defend themselves, to defend all the people, to defend the property, the military restricted area. “Nobody who is not authorized to work in the gates or to cross the gates should be near the gates,” Buehler added. KFOR is a NATO-led force deployed in the province with UN Security Council Resolution 1244 that ended the 1999 war. Serbian officials today accused KFOR of "enforcing decisions of the (Kosovo Albanian) Pristina government" and stepping outside the UN resolution. Kosovo's ethnic Albanians unilaterally declared independence more than three years ago, which Serbia rejected. (Tanjug)
