JABLANICA, Bosnia-Herzegovina (AP) — A year after a flood and landslide swept through a tiny village in southern Bosnia, killing 19 people, residents of Jablanica say their lives will never be the same again.
Jablanica was the worst hit of the four municipalities in central and southern Bosnia devastated by volleys of torrential rains and flash floods on Oct. 4, 2024, which swallowed roads and bridges.

Authorities have opened an investigation to determine who was responsible for the scope of the tragedy in Jablanica, but it has yielded no result.
The family home was completely destroyed and the couple have been promised a new one at the edge of the village.
