TL;DR Summary

Serbia claims to have arrested three Kosovo police officials in Serbian territory, while Kosovo authorities claim they were kidnapped within Kosovo's territory.

Kosovo's Prime Minister suspects that the Serbian army kidnapped the officers as revenge for the arrest of a notorious criminal. The incident occurred amid calls for Kosovo to de-escalate the situation in the Serb-majority north, where local Serbs have been protesting against newly elected mayors since May 26.
