Ethnic Albanian gunmen released five Macedonians abducted three days earlier. An ethnic Albanian rebel splinter group took responsibility for the kidnapping and threatened more abductions unless former rebels are freed from jail.

No one was harmed during the release, which came after negotiations between the kidnappers and representatives from international groups, including the European Union and the International Committee of the Red Cross, an Interior Ministry spokesman said.
