British Ambassador to Pristina, Nicholas Abbott, has condemned the attacks on journalists in Kosovo reported over the last few days, Gazeta Express reports.

In a Facebook Post, Ambassador Abbot said the journalists must be allowed to work without fear of violence. “I am concerned to hear reports of attacks on journalists in Kosovo. Journalists must be allowed to work without fear of violence. The UK is committed to media freedom and the protection of journalists around the world,” Abbott wrote in Facebook.

His reaction came after recent attempted attack on general director of the Gazeta Express and T7 Berat Buzhala, and Monday’s physical attack on journalists of online media Gazeta Blic while reporting from Mitrovica North. /GazetaExpress/
