Physical clash erupts in Serbian parliament over deadly train-station roof collapse from early November. Opposition members confront ruling party with dramatic protests while budget debate gets derailed

In a tense parliament session on nov-25‚ Serbian opposition members and ruling coalition got into a physical clash when Radomir Lazovic placed provocative banners about the recent train-station tragedy. Health minister Zatibor Loncar confronted Lazovic which led to a full-blown scuffle between deputies (who started pushing and hitting each other near speakers platform)

The conflict stems from a tragic incident in novi-sad where 15 people died after a train-station roof fell down: this happened just couple weeks ago. Opposition members brought pictures with red hands pointing at Aleksandar Vucic – the current president while shouting anti-government slogans

Law-enforcement took action last week arresting 12 people including an ex-minister but opposition says its too little too late. They demand resignation of prime minister Milos Vucevic who was novi-sad mayor when station work began. The ruling party denies all wrong-doing and blame opposition for making trouble at protest sites

  • Budget 2025 discussion got blocked
  • No-confidence motion filed against government
  • Opposition used whistles to stop parliament work
  • Speaker Ana Brnabic refused to put disaster topic on agenda

The afternoon session that started around 2pm got completely disrupted by noise-making tactics‚ while ruling coalition keeps dismissing corruption claims
