Main Points
On Monday evening, a group of citizens entered the Informer television building in Belgrade and interrupted a live broadcast. The incident began around 18:40 when several dozen people entered the studio during the program “Kolegijum.” The editor‑in‑chief, Dragan J. Vučićević, and some staff members left the studio, as reported by N1 and the news portal Faktor. Among the crowd was Dijana Hrka, the mother of one of the victims of the Novi Sad railway station tragedy. She had gathered the group outside the building earlier that evening, urging citizens to assemble. During the interruption, Vučićević called the police and emergency services, requesting a vehicle to evacuate staff. He also contacted Ilija Srdanović, the leader of the Student List, asking him to have the crowd leave the premises. Srdanović replied that he needed to verify the information first. A call to emergency services reported that a staff member was experiencing an epileptic seizure. After a verbal confrontation between Vučićević, other staff, and the crowd, the citizens left the building and regrouped outside. No injuries were confirmed in the initial reports. The situation escalated outside the building. Thousands of people gathered in front of Informer, and police established a cordon on the entrance roads and stationed a team at the building’s entrance, according to Faktor. When some of the crowd attempted to breach the cordon, they clashed with police. Prior to entering the building, the crowd had struck the entrance door and left a message that read “Students win.” Informer is known to be closely aligned with President Aleksandar Vučić and the Serbian Progressive Party. Students and citizens have long expressed frustration with the station’s reporting and alleged repeated violations of journalistic standards, as noted by Faktor.
