The Kosovo parliament was once again filled with tear gas, as opposition MPs protested against a new deal with Serbia.
Less than two weeks ago a parliamentary session was disrupted with the riot control agent, as the opposition protested against an EU-sponsored deal to give Kosovo's Serb-majority areas greater powers.
The opposition has claimed that parliament will not proceed until the deal is withdrawn.
It is claimed that some in Kosovo fear the Serb-majority areas will hold too much power through the deal.
Kosovo declared their independence from Serbia in 2008, however Belgrade still does not recognise the country. Relations between the two have generally improved over recent years.
