The Embassy’s personnel in Pristina are always advised to avoid protests and large gatherings, the announcement said.
The embassy also warns that in the hours before the start of the protests, and during their development, increased police presence, road closures, driving deviations and difficulties in traffic.
Citizens who can be located near areas where the protests are held have been called on to be cautious and give priority to their personal safety.
Among the Embassy’s recommendations is the avoidance of protest areas, the care of the unexpected near large gatherings, as well as the delivery of local media and Embassy reports to receive the latest information.
