Student movement supporters storm pro-government tabloid after election win

On Tuesday, supporters of the student-led movement that won Sunday's election stormed the offices of a pro-government tabloid in Belgrade, while another news outlet apologized for years of "one-sided" coverage. Volunteers also cleared the pro-government camp known as Ćaciland from Pioneers Park, where it had stood for 18 months. Key posts including prime minister remain unsettled, and the timing of government formation is unclear.

  • Aleksandar Vučić, in power for 12 years, said on Sunday that his Serbian Progressive Party had lost to the student-led movement.
  • The election commission said turnout reached 65%, with allegations of intimidation, violence and voting irregularities.
  • Celebrations erupted across Belgrade on Sunday night and Monday.
