Serbian genocidal killings of Albanians continued in 1915 in Albanian villages in Macedonia. According to a report from Köprülü, Serbian troops massacred 70 Albanians and took many to Skopje (Shkup). There they were accused them of throwing a bomb, however, it turns out that the Serbs themselves threw the bomb to have a reason to blame Albanians.

“Constantinople, January 19. According to a report from Köprülü, 70 Mohammedans were killed by the Serbs in a nearby Macedonian village, and many were captured and taken to Uskub. The Muslims were accused of throwing a bomb. Here, it is believed that the bomb was thrown by the Serbs themselves, with the intention of blaming the Muslims for this crime and creating a pretext for a progrom.”
