Significant economic news emerges with the imminent processing of Value Added Tax (VAT) refunds for first-time property buyers, with initial decisions expected within two days. This development is coupled with new infrastructure projects, including a 580-meter road section in Sarajevo and a major 102 million Euro road construction by Chinese investors aimed at improving connectivity. However, the day is also marked by a tragic fatal stabbing in a neighborhood, with a suspect apprehended, and fresh details regarding an incident in Ravno where two individuals were injured and a political dispute has arisen. Sarajevo also faces planned water disruptions due to new utility works, while a speech therapist has raised concerns about a dangerous trend of ADHD over-diagnoses in children. Meanwhile, Igman has successfully restarted its production following the resolution of a multi-day water supply interruption.
