A coordinated police operation entered its second day, with units and service dogs searching 40 locations. The ministry has reported the seizure of drugs, cash, and weapons in an action that has now reached every internal affairs sector in the country.
Museum officials are also looking for a way to reopen the national icon gallery, which has been closed for renovations for more than a decade. The collection is regarded as one of the most important in the world, but it has remained shuttered to the public throughout the long-running project.
In Brvenica, 16,256 voters are choosing a new mayor in a snap local election, while health authorities prepare to start seasonal flu vaccinations on Monday. For those not voting in person, the rolls include 449 citizens working abroad and nine currently in detention.
