Binačka Morava (Macedonian and Serbian Cyrillic: Биначка Морава; Albanian: Morava e Binçës) is a river which flows in southern Serbia, southeastern Kosovo[lower-alpha 1] and the Republic of Macedonia. It flows generally in the southwest to northeast direction, from Macedonian border to Bujanovac, where, after 49 km, meets Preševska Moravica, to create South Morava.

Sources

The river begins in the mountain of Skopska Crna Gora, in Republic of Macedonia, north of its capital Skopje. Streams of Ključevska reka and Slatinska reka join together to form the river Golema, which is, after passing the Macedonian-Serbian border, known as Binačka Morava.

Annotations

  1. Kosovo is the subject of a territorial dispute between the Republic of Kosovo and the Republic of Serbia. The Republic of Kosovo unilaterally declared independence on 17 February 2008, but Serbia continues to claim it as part of its own sovereign territory. The two governments began to normalise relations in 2013, as part of the Brussels Agreement. Kosovo has received recognition as an independent state from 110 out of 193 United Nations member states.
