After enduring a cold night outdoors, hundreds of striking students have resumed their 2-day anti-graft protest march from Belgrade to Novi Sad in Serbia. The students plan to blockade three bridges over the River Danube this weekend to commemorate the tragic collapse of a concrete construction at the railway station in Novi Sad that claimed 15 lives on November 1.

What initially began as a protest against suspected corruption in construction contracts has evolved into a significant challenge to President Aleksandar Vucic's leadership. Along their journey, the students have been met with support from citizens, who have cheered them on, honked car horns, and offered refreshments.
