I am immensely grateful to the members of the anti-sabotage unit, who are on the ground every day and inspect school buildings, institutions and other facilities throughout our city. Their dedication to work is an example of sacrifice and struggle for our Serbia, because by their actions every day they protect and provide peace to all our citizens.
