Bosnia's Serb-dominated region, Republika Srpska, has voted to hold a referendum against a federal court ruling that prevents nationalist leader Milorad Dodik from holding office. This decision escalates tensions between the region and Bosnia's central government.

Editor’s Note: This referendum is significant as it highlights the ongoing political tensions in Bosnia, particularly between the Serb-dominated region and the central authorities. The outcome could have serious implications for governance and stability in the country.
