Protests Erupt in Belgrade Over Railway Disaster

In Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia, over 1,000 protesters blocked the main avenue, demanding the government's resignation due to unemployment, air pollution, and tax issues. The demonstration, organized by the Freedom Alliance Party, began peacefully but escalated as more participants joined, including intoxicated youths. Meanwhile, in Serbia, thousands of students protested against the government's handling of a railway disaster that killed 15 people, blocking traffic at a key motorway intersection in Belgrade. The students are calling for accountability for alleged corruption related to the construction that led to the disaster. Protests have intensified following an attack on student demonstrators, with daily silent blockades held at the time of the incident. Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic faces increasing pressure as doubts grow over the independence of the investigation into the collapse.
