Dobrinja

Dobrinja (Serbian Cyrillic: Добриња) is a neighbourhood in the western outskirts of Sarajevo, part of the municipality of Novi Grad.

They included two residential neighbourhood, one school, and a trolleybus line to link it with the city centre.

These newest settlements suffered most damage during the conflict, as they were repeatedly bombed by the Army of Republika Srpska, and all three schools were destroyed.

In response, some efforts were made to revise the boundary line through Dobrinja, but the communities involved failed to reach an agreement.

By year 2001, the international High Representative appointed a former Irish Circuit Court judge Diarmuid Sheridan as an independent arbitrator, who re-drew the revised inter-entity boundary line, affecting Dobrinja I and IV, and eliminated the most pressing problems.
