Žar Mountain (Serbian: Жар планина / Žar planina, Zar planina; Albanian: Mali Zhar) is a mountain of Kosovo[a] . It has an elevation of 1,511 metres above sea level.[1]

The mountain marks the watershed of the drainage basins of the Ibar within the Danube drainage basin, the White Drin, and the Vardar. Hence the water from the mountain flows to the Black Sea, the Adriatic Sea and the Aegean Sea respectively.[citation needed]

Notes:

a.   ^ 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. 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 2013 Brussels Agreement. Kosovo is currently recognized as an independent state by 97 out of the 193 United Nations member states. In total, 112 UN member states are said to have recognized Kosovo at some point, of which 15 later withdrew their recognition.
