PRISTINA - The television building in Pristina, Serbia's Kosovo and Metohija province, was destroyed early Monday in what is suspected to be an act of arson.
Initial reports said the fire first broke out in a store and then spread to the neighbouring television building located in central Pristina.
International force KFOR fire brigades intervened. They said an unknown number of persons had been in the building when the fire broke out, and that it has not been determined yet whether there are any victims.
The fire broke out at about 2 a.m. and it took firemen two hours to localize the flames.
KFOR and international police representatives who are conducting an investigation have not said yet who is suspected of causing the fire, or what are the motives behind this biggest torching so far since they took over responsibility for protecting the population and material goods in this southern Serbian province.
