    Large crowds gathered in downtown Belgrade to protest a tragedy in Novi Sad, where on Friday a canopy at the entrance of the railway station collapsed, killing 14 people.

    Serbian citizens protested in front of the Ministry of Construction, showing police officers their hands painted with red paint and calling out their surnames, asking if there was “one honest person among them to arrest those responsible for the Novi Sad tragedy.“ The protest organizers told the Minister of Construction, Goran Vesić, that it would be better for him to resign today, warning of more radical actions to come.

    For Tuesday, after the three-day mourning period in Novi Sad, they announced a large protest in that city and called for civil disobedience. On Friday, a shelter at the entrance to the Novi Sad Railway Station collapsed, killing 14 people and leaving three others in critical condition.

    The Novi Sad railway station had been renovated twice in the past four years, first between 2021 and 2022, and then again after a few months. The station was officially opened on July 5 this year.

    Many Serbian blame the Chinese companies involved in the renovation for the tragedy, citing shoddy construction practices. Serbian Prime Minister Milos Vucević, currently on an official visit to China, tried to calm tensions, saying that no one has all the information regarding the tragedy in Novi Sad and said he does not want to be part of an anti-China hysteria that, according to him, has emerged following the incident.
