Protests in Serbia have escalated into violent clashes between demonstrators and police, with tear gas deployed in several cities. The unrest intensified after protesters set fire to the ruling party's offices and confronted riot police, resulting in injuries and arrests. Demonstrators are demanding snap elections and the resignation of President Aleksandar Vucic, whose government has faced growing criticism over alleged corruption and authoritarianism. The protests, initially sparked by a deadly infrastructure collapse, have gained momentum with strong participation from university students.
