Belgrade lockdown protests: 43 police officers injured

A group of opposition supporters stormed the Serbian parliament building in Belgrade on Tuesday in a protest against a lockdown planned for the capital this weekend to halt the coronavirus spread, Report says, citing TASS.
Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic said that stricter measures, including the lockdown of Belgrade over the weekend, would be introduced because of the rising number of coronavirus infections.
After Vucic's statement, several thousand people began gathering in front of the parliament in Belgrade's central square.
Around 10 p.m., a small group of protesters pushed past a police cordon, broke through a door and entered the parliament. But police later pushed them back.
 "The police managed to control the unrest, which lasted for several hours. At least 43 police officers suffer serious injuries. There are also injured among the protesters".
