In a significant development, authorities have discovered 150 tons of waste illegally stored at a site in Lički Osik. The permits for this storage expired in 2017, and the current situation is complicated by the fact that the property's owner has sold it, but the buyer is refusing to take possession of the waste. Meanwhile, the national football scene is in turmoil following a historic 0-7 defeat for the Croatian national team. This poor performance has drawn sharp criticism from former coach Vahid Halilhodžić and international media, leading to calls for the dismissal of current coach Slaven Bilić. In other news, politician Nino Raspudić, a Member of the Croatian Parliament for the Drito political party, publicly criticized the act of complaining to Brussels about domestic issues, viewing it as a sign of weakness. Separately, an analysis has emerged discussing why citizens did not support recent strikes, suggesting that public backlash was due to trade unions using their monopolistic position for blackmail. Zagreb is also reportedly bracing for a significant, yet unspecified, event referred to as 'Day D,' with an operational plan set to begin early in the morning.
