Police in Bosnia and Herzegovina launch major operation in Tuzla

Police in the Tuzla Canton have conducted a large-scale operation involving searches at eight locations to investigate an attempted murder in the Brčko District. The operation, ordered by the Basic Court of the Brčko District and supervised by the Brčko District Prosecutor's Office, resulted in the arrest of eight individuals from Tuzla.

In a separate incident in Sarajevo and Kladnje, the State Investigation and Protection Agency (SIPA) arrested three people as part of the ‘Istok Belt’ operation. These individuals are suspected of organizing a group to smuggle migrants, following the discovery of four Afghan minors by local police in a passenger vehicle.
