Serbia begins a day of general strike

“We won’t go to work, we won’t attend lectures, we won’t run errands. Let’s take our freedom into our own hands! Your participation makes a difference,” the students wrote on Instagram on Wednesday, inviting everyone to join the movement.

Numerous companies, associations, and political parties have expressed their support for the initiative. N1 has also joined the general strike and will exclusively report on events related to it on Friday.

At 11:52 am., a 15-minute moment of silence will be observed at various locations across Serbia, marking the exact time when an outdoor concrete canopy at the recently renovated Novi Sad train station collapsed on November 1, claiming the lives of 15 people and seriously injuring two others.

Additionally, the Protest Committee of Lawyers has scheduled a protest rally for 2 pm outside the Serbian Presidency building in Belgrade.
