Tens of thousands of people, led by university students, have rallied in the Serbian capital to protest against the government and call for early elections, Aljazeera reported. 

The Novi Sad rail station disaster in November 2024, which killed 16 people, sparked anticorruption protests, calling for a transparent investigation, forcing then-Prime Minister Milos Vucevic to resign.

Serbia’s President Aleksandar Vucic later pushed back hard against the protesters.
