On November 1, 2024, a tragic incident occurred at the Novi Sad train station in Serbia when the concrete roof collapsed, resulting in the initial death of 14 people. Unfortunately, the death toll has now risen to 15 following the death of a victim on November 18 [bbc0de9a]. The victims of this disaster ranged in age from six to 74 years old, with three additional individuals reported injured [bbc0de9a].

In the wake of this catastrophe, Serbia's Construction Minister Goran Vesic resigned, a move that has sparked widespread protests in both Novi Sad and Belgrade. Demonstrators are demanding accountability from government officials, accusing them of negligence and corruption in relation to the incident [bbc0de9a].

As part of the ongoing investigation, over 70 individuals have been questioned by prosecutors; however, no arrests have been made as of yet [bbc0de9a]. The protests continue to grow, reflecting public outrage over the perceived lack of accountability and the safety standards in public infrastructure [bbc0de9a].
