Police in Kosovo have made more than 140 arrests after clashing with protesters who tried to stop traffic from Serbia entering the territory.
Around 50 people -- most of them police officers -- were injured.
The Kosovar Albanian protesters were trying to block two border crossings. They were protesting over what they say is Serbian obstruction of Kosovo's independence since its secession in 2008.
