Fuel prices in Kosovo reached 1.69 euros per liter, prompting business leaders to request government action while key judicial decisions unfold.

Fuel prices in Kosovo have risen to 1.69 euros per liter, marking the highest increase since May and prompting calls from the Kosovo Chamber of Commerce for government intervention. Lulzim Rafuna, head of the Chamber of Commerce, warned that the nine-cent weekly increase will directly impact citizens and local businesses.

In legal developments, the Kosovo Judicial Council convened to deliberate on requests from Kosovo Serb judges and support staff seeking to withdraw their 2022 resignations following a petition by acting President Albulena Haxhiu. Concurrently, the Special Prosecution requested guilty verdicts against Sami Lushtaku and co-defendants over alleged witness intimidation in the "Drenica" war crimes trial, where defendants maintain their innocence.
