The Serbian-language online media outlet "Kosovo-online.com" has published an article claiming that the Kosovo Police, together with firefighters, have removed a Serbian flag from the transmitter pole of the Serbian telephone operator "MTS".
The article states that the video was sent to the editorial office of "Kosovë-online.com", which means that this video was not made by any reporter from this medium.
The editorial team has not confirmed the claim that the Kosovo Police and firefighters removed this flag, as the video does not show such a thing and it is not clear who is removing it.
Excerpt from the article's text translated into Albanian:
Members of the Fire Department, in cooperation with the Kosovo Police, this morning at around 9 am, removed the Serbian flag from the MTS transmitter in Vërboc, Viti.
In a video that has reached the editorial office of "Kosovo-online.com", a member of the fire department is seen climbing onto the transmitter pole, from where he has removed the Serbian flag and thrown it from the transmitter.
