Wide of Pristina street STORYLINE: Kosovo's NATO-led peacekeepers confronted crowds of angry Serbs on Thursday as they tried to remove Serb roadblocks in the volatile north of the country. For nearly three months, Kosovo Serbs have been blocking roads to stop the ethnic Albanian leadership from extending its control over the part of the country populated mostly by ethnic Serbs. The Serbs reject Kosovo's 2008 declaration of independence from Serbia and consider the region a part of the larger Serbian nation. After Kosovo Serb leaders refused NATO's demand to allow freedom of movement, the peacekeepers in riot gear moved in at dawn on Thursday against hundreds of Serbs at roadblocks consisting of parked trucks, rocks, mud and logs. A spokesman for the 5,500-strong NATO-led peacekeeping mission said he believed part of one roadblock was removed, but could not give details because the operation was ongoing. During the pushing and shouting between the two groups, the troops occasionally used pepper spray against the demonstrators, who sat down on the road some 10 kilometres (six miles) northwest of the divided town of Mitrovica. Several dozen protesters sought medical help because of the tear gas, Serbian state TV said. During the standoff, Kosovo Serbs further enforced the barricades with additional logs and trucks. The government defended NATO's action.
