Protests end in front of government, regime supporters leaving

The protests started in central Belgrade’s Nikola Pasic square, very near the fenced off area where regime supporters partied all through the day, ignoring the 16 Minutes of Silence in tribute to the victims of the Novi Sad Railway Station tragedy.

The protesters, including union activists, students and their supporters, then marched to the government headquarters.

A part of the crowd walked back to the square to make noise at the regime supporters, some of who have been living in tents for weeks. The tents were initially put up in the park in front of the presidency building but were expanded into the street between the presidency and parliament. Tables and chairs were set up earlier this week.

An N1 reporter said that the crowd of regime supporters started leaving after the protest. Earlier, posts on social media said that regime supporters were being bused in from other parts of Serbia. The two groups were separated by a metal fence, police officers and security guards.
