On March 15, 2025, over 100,000 Serbians assembled in Belgrade to protest against President Aleksandar Vučić's administration, marking one of the largest demonstrations in recent history. The protests were ignited by a tragic railway station roof collapse in Novi Sad on November 1, 2024, which claimed 15 lives. Demonstrators attribute the disaster to governmental corruption and substandard construction practices, as the station had undergone recent renovations by Chinese state companies. The movement, initially led by students, has expanded to include various societal sectors, all demanding accountability and justice for the victims. Despite the government's dismissal of these allegations, the protests persist, reflecting widespread discontent with Vučić's leadership.
