Jablanica flood recovery and investigation delays

Overview

Two years after catastrophic floods in October 2024, residents in Jablanica, Konjic, and Fojnica continue to face significant challenges regarding reconstruction and legal accountability. While humanitarian organizations have assisted in building homes for some families, official institutional efforts to restore infrastructure and permanent housing remain incomplete and have been criticized as slow or ineffective.

In addition to physical reconstruction delays, the legal process is facing scrutiny. Investigations led by the Prosecutor’s Office of Herzegovina-Neretva Canton have been hampered by allegations that evidence may have been collected unlawfully. These procedural concerns have led to fears that indictments could be dismissed, potentially due to incompetence or efforts to protect politically connected individuals.
