Serbia has been experiencing escalating political unrest marked by nearly a week of violent anti-government protests across multiple cities including Belgrade, Valjevo, and Novi Sad. Demonstrators, primarily opposing President Aleksandar Vučić's administration and accusing it of corruption, have clashed repeatedly with police forces who have used tear gas, stun grenades, and batons to disperse crowds. The protests have involved the torching of the Serbian Progressive Party offices and widespread allegations of police brutality, which the interior ministry has denied. President Vučić has described the unrest as a "color revolution" orchestrated and financed from abroad and has vowed a strong and decisive response to restore order. Authorities have arrested 37 people and reported 42 police officers injured during the clashes. Vučić has warned of the potential for open street violence and has pledged to take tough measures against the protesters within days. The situation remains tense as protests continue amid accusations exchanged between government and opposition forces.
