A month after tragic railway station incident citizens of Novi Sad gathered to remember lost lives. Protesters left symbolic red marks across city center expressing their message to local government

In early november a devastating incident shook the northern Serbian city when a concrete-covered walkway fell at its main rail hub — causing 15 deaths and leaving two people hurt.

This sunday thousands of grief-stricken locals marched through Novi Sad streets (marking exactly one month since the tragedy) The protesters carried a large banner showing a red handprint: a direct message suggesting that current leadership bears responsibility for these deaths.

The demonstration reached its peak at the citys main square where participants made their statement even more visible — they placed red handprints on ground surfaces and covered significant parts of the area in red paint; making an unforgettable sight for everyone present at this peaceful but powerful show of unity
