Kosovo authorities confirmed the seizure of a significant quantity of wood in the municipality of Dragash following an inspection conducted by the local police force. The materials were detained after it was discovered that the shipment lacked the required transit documentation for legal transport. According to an official statement issued by the police, the incident occurred on January 1, 2026.
Personnel from the Police Station in Dragash, operating under the Regional Police Directorate in Prizren, were conducting a routine patrol when they intercepted a commercial truck traveling along the main road. During the standard verification of transport paperwork, officers determined that the vehicle was carrying an approximately 35 cubic meters of wood. This wood was traced to the area of Leposaviqi but was being moved without the necessary accompanying transit documents.
The police action resulted in the immediate impoundment of the entire consignment, along with the truck and the vehicle itself. Authorities confirmed that the details of the seizure and the circumstances surrounding the violation were formally reported to the relevant agency for further investigation and processing. This operation underscores the ongoing efforts by the police to enforce compliance with national regulations governing the transport of natural resources within Dragash and the wider region.
The seizure highlights the enforcement measures taken against undocumented commercial activities.
