Clashes erupted between protesters and police in central Belgrade following mass demonstrations demanding early elections and protesting government policies.

Video footage showed demonstrators throwing stones, flares, and fireworks at riot police, who responded with tear gas and arrested several participants.

The protests are part of a broader anti-corruption movement that has intensified since the collapse of a railway station roof in Novi Sad in 2024, an incident that killed several people and triggered widespread public outrage.
