Two consecutive deadly shootings in the past week have shaken Serbia, with psychologists saying that the “normalisation of violence” in the Balkan nation has become so dangerous that major changes in all spheres of society are needed to avoid further mass shootings.
Serbia declared a three-day state of mourning until Sunday following a mass shooting in a school – a first for the country. A 13-year-old boy shot dead eight students – seven girls and a boy – and a security guard at an elementary school in the centre of the capital, Belgrade.
