Allegations of police brutality and violence have arisen, with calls from the Council of Europe's Commissioner for Human Rights to de-escalate the situation. The protests, initially triggered by a railway station collapse in Novi Sad, have grown in intensity, with tensions rising between anti-government protesters and pro-Vučić loyalists.
