Thousands of Serbians filled the streets of Novi Sad on Saturday to mark one year since the collapse of the city's newly renovated railway station roof, a disaster that killed 16 people and ignited one of the country's largest protest movements in decades.
At 11:52am, the exact moment the roof gave way on that autumn morning in 2024, crowds fell silent for 16 minutes, one for each victim, as families laid flowers and candles at the site where twisted metal and shattered glass once lay.
