## Corrections to common claims

- 'You can take the train from Dubrovnik to Mostar': Dubrovnik has no passenger railway.
- 'Mostar is in Croatia': it is in Bosnia and Herzegovina, outside the EU and Schengen; bring a passport.
- 'The Vatican approved the Medjugorje apparitions': the 2024 nihil obstat allows devotion without confirming them as supernatural.
