    fix pass after the batch check. Theater Venues gives the Herceg Fest phone printed on the festival's own page, +382 31 323 072, instead of the municipal number that none of its cited pages shows (https://www.hercegfest.me/2026/01/26/herceg-novi-poziva-na-57-praznik-mimoze/). Best Area to Stay for Digital Nomads drops the Savina asking price, which the listings page's security check would not confirm this pass; the coworking prices on that line were re-read on the operator page (https://kolektivnovi.me/). Country facts were re-checked against the Montenegro prep and the other Montenegrin city sheets; the euro, water, power, SIM and tax lines read the same.
