News summary

A massive protest in Belgrade against President Aleksandar Vucic drew over 100,000 participants, reflecting widespread dissatisfaction with government corruption and negligence following a tragic accident that claimed 15 lives. The rally, known as '15 for 15', was marked by chants for accountability and change, despite sporadic clashes and a tense atmosphere, leading to heightened police presence and roadblocks. Students played a pivotal role in organizing the protests, which have been described as historic and potentially unprecedented in scale.
