Thousands of protesters rally in Kosovo to support KLA

Thousands of protesters across Kosovo joined rallies on Wednesday against the recent arrests of veterans of the Kosovo Liberation Army, KLA, suspected of war crimes.

The protesters, who rallied in 26 towns in Kosovo, were led by the KLA war veterans association, and asked for the release of all KLA fighters arrested by the EU rule-of-law mission in Kosovo, EULEX.

The protest came several days after officials from EULEX arrested 12 persons on suspicion of committing war crimes in Kosovo.
