Two Orthodox churches attacked in Kosovo

Once again, the temples of the Serbian Orthodox Church in Kosovo and Metohija were damaged at the hands of vandals and robbers. The so-called Kosovar police reported about the attacks on March 13, 2021, Pravlife writes.

Both cases took place in the Shtrpce community in the far south of Kosovo, near the border with Macedonia. The first one is in the ancient Serbian village of Dreikovce, where Serbian and Albanian families live today. A villainous penetration into the Church of the Forty Sebastian Martyrs was discovered there. The robbers took out about three thousand dinars (approx. 850 UAH). Vandals have already attacked this temple: in November 2019, doors were also broken open and money was stolen from the cash register.

The second damaged temple is the Dimitrievskaya church of the 16th century in the village of Donya-Bitinya. The door has been broken open here, there is no information about the loss of material assets yet.
