BRUSSELS: NATO said Friday it will cut troop numbers in its peacekeeping mission in Kosovo as the security situation has improved.

The KFOR mission — currently 4,600-strong — has been stationed in Kosovo since the end of the 1998-1999 war between ethnic Albanian separatist guerrillas and Serbian forces.
