Serbian government fell this week when Prime Minister Miloš Vučević announced his resignation on Tuesday. It was the latest and, so far, the most significant political consequence of a student-led movement which emerged after the Novi Sad tragedy in November. The students, however, are sticking to their original demands, which did not include the resignation of the government, and show no intention of backing down.
In the early hours of Tuesday, 28 January, armed men physically assaulted a group of students in Novi Sad. A young woman was seriously hurt, requiring hospitalisation. The attackers emerged from the headquarters of the ruling Serbian Progressive Party (SNS), which they were supposedly guarding from the students.
