The Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina has launched a new 'Child Alert BH' system to enhance efforts in locating missing children. This initiative aims to streamline the search process and improve response times in such critical cases.
Meanwhile, Italian military prosecutors have initiated an investigation into the fatal helicopter crash near Brčko, with initial suspicions pointing towards a technical malfunction.

Economically, Bosnia and Herzegovina continues to face significant challenges, with over half of its workforce earning less than 1,350 KM net salary. Major industrial closures have contributed to a national deficit exceeding 10 billion KM, signaling a substantial economic downturn.
