The Speaker of the Kosovo Assembly, Albulena Haxhiu, met with Atdhe Hetemi, executive director of the Institute of War Crimes in Kosovo, who submitted the institution’s annual report.

In a social media post, Haxhiu said she had been briefed on the Institute’s work over the past year, with particular emphasis on the verification of data on individual war victims.

She recalled that, based on the verified information, the Institute compiled a preliminary list of war victims, which was published in July.

“For the first time, the institutions of the Republic of Kosovo have registered war victims individually, relying on verified documents and testimonies,” Haxhiu wrote.

She said the Assembly would continue to support the Institute’s work and thanked Hetemi and his staff for their professionalism and dedication to documenting war crimes.
