Footage of the aftermath of the riots in Valevo in connection with the protests has been published

As a result of the protests in the Serbian city of Valjevo, several premises were damaged, one of which was the prosecutor's office. The corresponding footage is published by Izvestia on August 17.

"Today's protest in Valevo resulted in damage to several buildings," said Izvestia correspondent Sergey Petrov.

Damage was recorded in the administration building in the form of broken windows and overturned tables. The protesters tried to get inside, but the police stopped their attempts. Criminologists are currently working at the site.

Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic commented on the situation, saying that the unstable behavior of the protesters and the subsequent destruction of property was due to their inability to offer something else.

"The time of responsibility is coming and all those who burned and destroyed will be held accountable and will be punished for their crimes," he said in a video message on Instagram (owned by Meta, a company recognized in the Russian Federation as extremist, whose activities are prohibited on the territory of the Russian Federation).
