Smoke bombs, torches and vuvuzelas marked the first day of the session, while physical clashes between MPs further intensified the crisis in parliament. The second day of the session started very calmly, with a discussion on amendments, without opposition MPs
The second day of the session started very calmly.
The session of the National Assembly continued with the discussion on amendments, and the media reports that a more detailed search is carried out at the entrance to the National Assembly.
There are no opposition MPs in the hall.
As it was announced yesterday, three female MPs were injured during the disturbances in the Parliament. The President of the Assembly, Ana Brnabić, said that MP Jasmina Obradović, who was thrown a shock bomb, suffered a stroke, and MP Jasmina Karanac was also injured, as was Sonja Ilić, who is eight months pregnant.
Opposition MPs made noise and disrupted work with vuvuzelas and rattles throughout the session, while government MPs and ministers spoke from their seats.

"They told us when she came that she was in a very bad condition, now we could already communicate, she will stay here and she said she can't wait to return to the Assembly." "He said that he was very grateful for the care that the Futo people showed her," said Vučić.
As one MP of the opposition told "Vremen" late on Tuesday, it had not yet been decided whether there would be another disruption and what kind.
Controls may be tightened. Small smoke bombs - actually fans' "sparkles" - are made of cardboard and plastic and are not recognized by the metal detectors at the entrance.
It is not excluded that the opposition MPs brought pyrotechnics into their premises in the Parliament before.
According to the vice president of the Party of Freedom and Justice, Marinika Tepić, it was just a reason for the search.
