Serbian-language media outlet "informer.rs" published an article yesterday claiming that media outlets close to Albin Kurti are attacking Serbia and supporting opposition protests in Serbia.
"Informer.rs" made this claim based on reporting regarding the reaction of Serbian Prime Minister Ana Brnabić towards the Serbian opposition.
After research, it was found that the claim is unfounded.

Parts of the article published in "Informer":
The media under the control of the prime minister of the fake state did not miss the opportunity to attack Serbia and support the violent protests that took place last night in the capital.
We recall that during yesterday's heated parliamentary discussion, Serbian Prime Minister Ana Brnabić condemned the opposition's behavior in this institution as shameful.
The claim by the Serbian-language media outlet that the Prime Minister of Serbia, Ana Brnabić, was attacked by Kurti's media is completely unfounded. By describing it as "hitting the Prime Minister", this media outlet has not explained what professional error "gazetaexpress.com" has made in this case.
From the analysis of the article by "gazetaexpress.com", it can be seen that the content only presents a description of the Serbian Prime Minister's reaction (see the article here), which appears in a video excerpt from a speech (debate) she gave in the Serbian Parliament.
Excerpt from the "gazetaexpress.com" article:
Serbian Prime Minister Ana Brnabić was unable to control her nervousness today in the Serbian Parliament, during clashes with the opposition, where there were heated discussions.
A moment is lost, she loses control and violently slams the microphone in front of her.
"Shame on you," Brnabic loudly addresses the opposition.
A Serbian singer named Seka Aleksic commented on the video, writing ironically that she reacts this way when they put the wrong product in her hamburger.
From what is seen in the article, the author has described the nervous reaction of Prime Minister Brnabić (see the full video of Brnabić's debate). here) and has also published and commented on a comment by a Serbian singer named "Seka Aleksic", posted on Twitter related to the event (here).
Also, this Serbian media outlet claims that the "attack on Brnbiq" was carried out by media outlets close to Kurti, alluding to the Prime Minister of Kosovo.
This claim is also unfounded. In fact, “gazetaexpress.com” with the business name 'Media Works' is owned by “ABC MANAGEMENT”, which is owned by the entrepreneur from Albania, Klodian Allajbeu, and is run by Leonard Kerquku. (here)
So, there is no connection between this medium and Prime Minister Kurti that can be made in terms of ownership or editorial policy, as "Informer.rs" claims.
Analyze:
The claim that the Serbian Prime Minister was attacked by Kurti-controlled media is baseless. After research, it was found that "gazetaexpress.com", to which the Serbian-language media outlet refers, reported on Brnabić's behavior during the clash with the opposition in the Serbian parliament.
Furthermore, "gazetaexpress.com" is not a medium under Kurti's control, as claimed by "Informer.rs".
Based on its work methodology, hibrid.info considers this claim to be "misinformation".
