Public Investment Minister Darko Glišić attributed recent wildfires to protest-organizing circles, which opposition party SRCE called a false and irresponsible claim meant to deflect from state failures. Serbia experienced an ecological disaster at the Deliblatska Peščara protected site, where over 3,500 hectares burned, which SRCE attributes to the authorities' negligence rather than external causes.

These events count towards no band, municipality or active-source figure, and are not drawn on the map. The region is Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Kosovo, Montenegro, North Macedonia and Serbia. How this is decided
A count of events per day, not an index. A bar takes the colour of the worst band that day. This chart counts ALL events, including those outside the region, by the day they were first seen — which is why it does not match the number in the heading, which counts the region in the chosen window. The bar colour comes from that same unfenced set. The media signal index is not calculated yet; its formula will be published before the first number.
