PRISHTINA -- A new mass grave which reportedly holds the remains of Kosova conflict victims, has been uncovered in Serbia.
The statement came from officials from the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) Friday.
Herardo Patrandolfi, the head of the ICRC office in the province, said that both the ICRC and the United Nations administration in Kosova (UNMIK) have been notified of the new grave site.
He declined to give any details of its location or size.
Over 2,100 people are still registered as missing since the end of the conflict in Kosova, Patrandolfi said.
Since the fall of late Serbian strongman Slobodan Miloševic's regime in 2000, mass graves have been uncovered in many locations in Serbia.
The posthumous remains of thousands of Kosova Albanians have been excavated from these sites, and the bodies of identified victims have been transferred to their families in the province.
