Early parliamentary elections are held in Serbia. They were appointed in September by former president Aleksandar Vucic amid nearly two years of mass student-led protests, Reuters reports. It should be noted that long lines are observed near the polling stations throughout the country. According to analysts, as of 11:00 am, 27.3% of citizens voted in the special elections. This significantly exceeds the indicator of 2023, when at the same time the voting percentage was 15.1%. It is known that protests against corruption and authoritarian politics broke out after the tragedy of 2024 in the city of Novi Sad, where 16 people died as a result of the collapse of the canopy at the train station. Since then, the student movement has gained widespread support and has sought to remove Vucic from power.
