What was journalists' association reaction | AJK condemns the boycott and lynching vocabulary toward the portal "Jepi Ze" by Levizja Vetevendosje in Mitrovica. The accusations of the governing party that this portal is working for another political party are unacceptable. The call for boycott of the local portal and the language used towards some journalists is lynching that seriously endangers their safety.
