The Italian Army is contributing to #KFOR efforts against #COVID19 with a team from the 7Th Chemical-Biological-Radiological-Nuclear Defence Regiment to disinfect common areas within the NATO-led #Kosovo Force, together with specialists from Austria, Slovenia and Switzerland.

The team has deployed to Pristina in the first week of May and has already disinfected the military section of the airport, where KFOR troops and cargo are transiting on a regular basis.

The Italian specialists will now carry out their activities at the medical facilities and accommodation sites in Camp Film City, which houses KFOR Headquarters. The whole effort provided for weeks by all national specialist teams will have an impact on keeping key facilities safe and sanitized.

KFOR’s ability to perform its mission in accordance with the United Nations Security Council Resolution 1244 of 1999 has not been undermined. In the last weeks KFOR units have continued to carry out their daily activities aimed at maintaining a safe and secure environment and freedom of movement for the benefit of all citizens in Kosovo, whilst adopting all preventive measures recommended by the World Health Organization in response to COVID-19.
