Kosovo Police have extended the vacancy for new police officers from non-majority communities in the Regional Directorate in Mitrovica North.

The vacancy, which was initially announced from January 5 to January 26, will be extended to February 10, police confirmed to Radio Free Europe today.

Police however did not say how many applications they have received so far if members of the Serb community have applied, or former police officers from the north of Kosovo who resigned from their positions in November last year.

“Kosovo Police, through video messages, awareness raising campaigns, and official meetings in all regions, has always encouraged and continues to encourage members from all minority communities to apply and join the Kosovo Police,” the police said.
