Tensions between Kosovo and Serbia.
Tensions are very high currently between Serbia and Kosovo, with reports of barricades going up in Serb areas of the province and clashes. It’s an evolving situation tonight but it’s possible that Serbia has upped the ante as part of a geopolitical move coordinated with Russia

Tonight’s tension on the border between Serbia and Kosovo indicates that Russia may be considering other fronts; if the war in Ukraine is not going their way, they might stir up allies like Serbia to re-open old fault-lines. Worrying times for European leaders.

An MP from the Serbian Progressive Party, Serbia's largest party, wrote on Twitter earlier today that Serbia will be forced to begin the denazification of the Balkans but he follows up that denazification can be done through education, he is ranting a lot about denazification though. Of course, he is just one MP though and every country has their odd crazy bastard MP so he's probably Serbia's.
Will try to keep an eye on it but it's probably just sabre-rattling. There is a NATO peacekeeping force in Kosovo and I doubt Serbia would do much to distract from Ukraine. I don't think NATO would have much issue backing Kosovo against a non-nuclear country either, not the slight reluctance they have in helping Ukraine too much in fear of provoking Russia cause they have nukes.
