The country's authoritarian president, Aleksandar Vucic, was the protestors' main target at the large anti-corruption demonstration, following the fatal accident at the Novi Sad train station. Saturday's movement was reminiscent of those that led to the fall of former dictator Slobodan Milosevic in 2000.

Tens of thousands of demonstrators flooded the streets of Belgrade on Saturday, joining what has become one of the largest anti-government protests in Serbia in recent years.
