Belgrade authorities announced mosquito control operations for Thursday, August 13, between 3:30 AM and 7:00 AM. The spraying will target specific areas along the Danube River, including locations from Pančevački most towards Crvenka, Jojkićev Dunavac, and the left bank of the Danube. Operations will also occur in Barajevo, Sopot, Resnik, Mladenovac, Kanarevo brdo, Miljakovac, and Višnjička banja.

Residents are asked to allow the municipal cleaning teams unobstructed access to perform their duties. Beekeepers are specifically advised to protect their bee colonies during the treatment.

The spraying will proceed only if weather conditions are favorable, meaning no rain, optimal temperatures, and no wind. The preparation used for the treatment is registered with the Ministry of Environmental Protection and is on the Temporary List of Biocidal Products. Officials assured the public that there is no reason for concern regarding the substance used.
