A deadline for forming the new parliament has begun, with Refik Lendo expected to chair the opening session. It is the first step in a process to establish the new convocation. In the Republika Srpska, Alen Šeranić has resigned his government post to take a seat in the assembly, a move that entails a special task following his resignation.
The European Commission has told the Republika Srpska to stop its independent digital identity plans and join a national system, demanding unified oversight at the national level. Meanwhile, the capital is running out of space for its waste; Sarajevo has approximately one year of disposal capacity left and 1,200 illegal dumps have been identified across the territory.
In Banja Luka, Mayor Draško Stanivuković has rented billboards to publicly criticize politicians who have switched parties. Elsewhere, German retailer Lidl has confirmed it will open a major logistics facility and several new stores.
