Warning: Sporadic Violence in Kosovo (Mid-level alert), Civil disturbance

Despite the ongoing presence of multiple international forces in Kosovo, the tension over the region's independence remains high between the minority Serbs and Albanian Kosovars. The Presevo and Bujanovac areas of southern Serbia, near the administrative border of Serbia and Kosovo, should be avoided.

Attacks by extremists and criminals occur sporadically in Kosovo. While this outlook continues, travellers are advised to check government travel advice.
