Liberation Army of Chameria
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Liberation Army of Chameria (Albanian: Ushtria Çlirimtare e Çamërisë) is a reported paramilitary formation in the northern Greek region of Epirus.[1][2][3][4][5][6] However, it has been disputed that the organisation is a Greek front.[7] The organisation is reportedly linked to the Kosovo Liberation Army and the National Liberation Army, both ethnic Albanian paramilitary organisations in Serbia and the Republic of Macedonia respectively.
As of 2001, the Greek police reported that the group consisted of approximately 30-40 Albanians. It reportedly does not have the support of the Albanian government.[8]
