Hundreds of striking students are marching through the Serbian countryside, taking their anti-graft protest toward the northern city of Novi Sad, where they plan to blockade three bridges over the River Danube this weekend.

Hundreds of students set off on a protest march of some 90 kilometers from Belgrade to the northern city of Novi Sad on January 30. The demonstrations come amid months of anti-government protests following a deadly infrastructure collapse in Novi Sad in November 2024.
