Smoke grenades and flares in parliament. 3 Members injured

During the Tuesday gathering of the Single home Parliament of Serbia, opposition MPs began throwing smoke grenades, raccos and eggs in the room. 3 MPs were injured, 1 of them fighting for her life in the infirmary - said Parliament president Ana Brnabić.

Opposition MPs began throwing raccos, grenades and eggs after the majority of the ruling agenda was adopted. Members fired red-black race and spread a banner with the inscription "Serbia Rises to Make the government Fall".

The messenger "fights for life"

Mr Jasmin Obradović from the Serbian Progressive organization (SNS) She was hit in the head with a smoke grenade. The politician is presently in the hospital, where - according to the marshall of Brnoć - "fights for life." One of the another injured people is pregnant woman.

Despite the smoke filling the gathering room, Brno continues its meeting. The opposition continues to chant and suppress the speeches of ministers and members of the ruling coalition. In front of the parliament building in Belgrade, a crowd of people gathered screaming, "Thieves."

On Tuesday, among others, a vote on the resignation of Prime Minister Milos Vuchević, announced by him on 28 January, was scheduled. This decision was a consequence to mass protests in the country since November 2024. Demonstrators accuse the authorities of corruption and negligence, which they believe would lead to a tragedy at the railway station in Nowy Sada, where 15 people died after part of the roof collapsed.

Student protest

62 items were listed on the Tuesday agenda. The opposition demanded only a vote on changes in teaching in higher education and the resignation of the government, claiming that the power that resigned should not be afraid with creating so many changes in the law.

Students, liable for organising most protests in Serbia, request disclosure of all contracts related to the renovation of the station in Nowy Sada, punishing guilty attacks on demonstrators, dismissing charges against protestors and expanding budget expenditure on higher education by 20%.

The government and the president of Serbia have ensured that all the demands have been met or will be fulfilled soon. However, the students replied that no had been completely fulfilled so far and so continued their actions.

Opposition MPs supported student protest and postulates of demonstrators.
