Nato sends reinforcements as Kosovo violence continues

Nato-led peacekeepers deployed more troops to regain control of Kosovo today, promising to take harsh measures against rioters – even if it means some of them may be shot.

Ethnic Albanians set Serb homes and churches on fire yesterday as Kosovo convulsed in a second day of violence – the worst since the province’s war ended in 1999. At least 31 people have been killed and hundreds wounded in clashes that have rocked every major city in the province.
