 Even the Macedonian ministers and diplomats in Skopje agreed that the possibility of this attacking being carried out by Albanians was unlikely as the NLA had no history of attacking any religious or cultural buildings or sites.NATO military experts said that "the fact that the battery was lying within an area spattered by rubble and wreckage seemed to suggest that it was detonated using a relatively sophisticated timer device;" also, the extensive amount of explosive used and the type of explosive all pointed to the Macedonian military.This incident is to this day disputed and the monastery is now under reconstruction, with some donations from the Albanian Islamic Union of Macedonia as a gesture of good faith, and from the Macedonian government.
