Serbian Mass Shooting Prompts Silent March of Thousands.

Thousands of people marched in silence in Serbia to protest against the government's handling of two mass shootings that left 17 people dead and 21 wounded. The opposition parties called for the resignation of government ministers and the withdrawal of licenses to state-controlled mainstream media that promote violence. The protesters also demanded that President Aleksandar Vucic step down. The shootings have triggered calls for tolerance and the eradication of hate speech and gun culture.
