"Serbia's Ruling Party Secures Election Victory Amid Fraud Claims"

Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic's ruling party, the Serbian Progressive Party (SNS), is projected to win almost 47% of the vote in snap parliamentary elections, heading for an absolute majority. Opposition parties under the Serbia Against Violence (SPN) banner are claiming electoral fraud and calling for a recount. Initial results show the SNS winning over half of the seats in the National Assembly. The SPN had hoped to win control of Belgrade in local elections but the SNS is slightly ahead. The protests against Vucic and his party grew after two mass shootings in May.
