A violent brawl erupted in Serbia’s parliament on Monday during Prime Minister Miloš Vučević’s budget presentation for 2025.
Opposition MPs, protesting the government’s role in a deadly railway station roof collapse in Novi Sad that killed 15, disrupted Vučević’s speech with whistles, horns, and signs accusing the government of corruption.
The chaos began when opposition MP Radomir Lazović approached ministers with a sticker showing a bloody handprint, prompting a physical altercation with Health Minister Zlatibor Lončar.
MPs clashed, throwing water and shoving each other, while security struggled to separate them.
The incident reflects widespread anger over the disaster, with protests demanding accountability, Politico has reported.
Serbian President Vučić condemned the protesters but vowed to punish those responsible.
