#Konavle

Once unthinkable, summer harvests are now a necessity. Niko Karaman, an enologist from Konavle, explains to Slobodna Dalmacija how drought is transforming viticulture and what it means for this year's yield.

While prices in Dubrovnik often surpass 5,000 euros per square meter, new construction in rural Konavle now reaches figures once reserved for city neighborhoods.

Luko Vezilić and Vlaho Rajčević, members of the golden Croatian U16 water polo team, visited the Municipality of Konavle chief Božo Lasić on Tuesday, who congratulated them on winning the world title.

Conditions at the border crossing with Montenegro are significantly better than last weekend, when queues stretched 20 kilometers and waits lasted up to 16 hours.

After yet another traffic collapse at the border, a columnist for Slobodna Dalmacija sharply criticizes the Government and Croatian Roads for years of ignoring infrastructure problems in the south of Croatia, while praising locals who helped tourists.

Željko Marušić tells N1 how the new toll collection system will worsen the already critical situation at the border with Montenegro.

Former Dubrovnik-Neretva County Prefect praised the Municipality of Konavle's response to the traffic chaos, but the media question his role in the long-standing failure to address the connectivity issues in Croatia's far south.

Former County Prefect Nikola Dobroslavić claims the blame for the lack of a fast road does not lie at the state level, while traffic expert Željko Marušić sees the main problem in Montenegro's infrastructure and the new toll collection system.

After the traffic chaos in Konavle, Mayor Božo Lasić thanked everyone who helped, from the youth of Vitaljina to the workers of Čistoća, and announced the continuation of the cleanup.

Following last weekend's traffic collapse, municipal services and volunteers have been working for days to repair the aftermath of kilometer-long queues toward Karasovići.

As the aftermath of a record traffic collapse, where passengers waited up to 10 hours, is being addressed, Mayor Lasić emotionally described the solidarity of locals and demanded an urgent solution for border crossings.

Father Petar Markić and young volunteers from the parishes of Pridvorje and Dubravka distributed food and water to exhausted travelers who waited for hours at the border with Montenegro.

Croatia opened five lanes at the border, but the Montenegrin side operated with only two. Residents of Konavle distributed water and food to travelers stuck in long lines.

After last week's queues at border crossings, Mayor Lasić announces cleanup of the main road and thanks locals for their big hearts.

Municipal mayor activates civil protection headquarters, locals hand out sandwiches to stranded travelers, and blame for the long-neglected infrastructure of the south continues to be passed around.

20-kilometer queues and 10-hour waits at Karasovići activated the Civil Protection Headquarters, while the head of Konavle calls for expansion of the Debeli Brijeg crossing.
