Kosovo's north is tense because the Serbs who live there have refused to recognize Kosovo's 2008 declaration of independence from Serbia. The Serbs also have rejected the authority of Kosovo's central government.
Serbia lost control over its former province after 1989-99 war and has vowed never to recognize it as a new country.
