PRISTINA, Nov 30 (Reuters) - Kosovo's interior minister Xelal Svecla said on Saturday that eight people had been arrested and a "huge arsenal of weapons" confiscated as part of its investigation into an explosion that threatened power and water supplies.
"Somehow we managed to fix the damage, arrest the suspects and confiscate a huge arsenal of weapons," Svecla said during a live-streamed press conference.
