2 years of protests, one crucial election: Serbia's students challenge Vucic's 14-year rule

Serbia is gearing up for early parliamentary elections on October 25, which might alter the political scene significantly.

Sparked by a catastrophic railway disaster in 2024, a student-led anti-corruption protest movement has gained momentum.

Amid rising tensions, fears of government surveillance and the intimidation of political critics abound.

With uncertainty surrounding the election outcome, both the ruling party and student activists brace for a closely contested battle.
