Writing on the X platform about the start of excavations at a mass grave in the village of Kalludër in Zubin Potok, Kurti said the remains of 23 intellectuals from Mitrovica are believed to be located there. They included doctors, professors and human rights activists who were abducted and disappeared on April 19, 1999.
“Despite Serbia’s continued obstruction of efforts to clarify the fate of these innocent people, the Republic of Kosovo will not stop seeking truth and justice,” Kurti wrote.
He stressed that Kosovo’s institutions remain determined to find every missing person, uncover every hidden grave and bring those responsible to justice, so that the families of the missing may finally find some measure of peace and solace.
According to Kurti, although more than a quarter of a century has passed since the end of the 1998-1999 war, the families of 1,565 people who were forcibly disappeared, including more than 100 children, are still waiting to learn what happened to their loved ones.
