Thousands of Serbians protested in Novi Sad following a railway station collapse that killed 14 people. Demonstrators clashed with police, demanding arrests and accountability.
Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic asserted that the police were practicing restraint amid violent protests, stressing that violence would not be tolerated and that criminals would be punished.
Organisers of the protest accused identified rioters as potential provocateurs, suggesting a systematic strategy used by the government to undermine peaceful demonstrations and discredit opposition.
In the aftermath of the protests, Vucic visited Novi Sad and showed support for the police, demonstrating a clear intent to control the narrative regarding the unrest.
