🚚 Trucker

A joint operation between Bulgarian police and domestic investigators led to the arrest of a truck driver carrying 12kg of cocaine. The narcotics, valued at 1.16 million euros, were found in a bag hidden inside the vehicle. Milorad Dodik has announced a new joint project with Serbia, omitting the formality of seeking approval from state-level institutions. Mr Dodik framed the move as a defense of the Dayton Accords. Meanwhile, the Islamic Community expects to elect a new leader within hours to succeed Husein Kavazović. The HDZ BiH has begun government formation talks with its usual priority: changing the electoral law. In Sarajevo Canton, analysts are debating whether 18 votes will be enough to secure a coalition.
