On Monday July 25, 2011 Kosovo special police forces implemented customs regulations on the two northern border-checkpoints between Kosovo and Serbia, launching a crisis in Northern Kosovo. As of August 12, 2011 some Serbian roadblocks near the village of Rudare remain in place to limit movement of Albanian Kosovo Police and KFOR.
Local Serbs seek a return to the status-quo before the border closure to ensure their trade links with central Serbia.
