Several hundred students and citizens in Belgrade held the "29 minutes of silence" action on Thursday.
A few hundred students and citizens in Belgrade held a "29 minutes of silence" action on Thursday for the 15 killed in the fall of the canopy of the reconstructed Railway Station in Novi Sad on November 1, as well as for the two killed on December 31 in Arilje and 12 killed on January 1 in Cetinje in Montenegro.
The action at the corner of Roosevelt and Queen Mary Streets, not far from the building of the Faculty of Engineering and the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, began at 11.52:XNUMX a.m., that is, at the time when the tragedy occurred in Novi Sad.
Those gathered carried banners "BG - CT" in Latin and Cyrillic with a drawn heart, "Machinists against machinery", and some citizens got out of their cars and joined the post office.
Students previously announced on social networks that today's commemoration will be extended from the current 15 minutes to 29 minutes, in memory of the victims of the tragedy in Cetinje and Arilje.
A married couple was killed in a restaurant in Arilje on December 31 around 19:XNUMX p.m., and the suspect for the murder was arrested.
Gathering at Freedom Square
On the first day of 2025, in Cetinje in Montenegro, 12 people were killed, including two children, after which the suspect committed suicide.
The Bravo civic movement from Novi Sad invited fellow citizens to gather in the center of the city, on Freedom Square, on January 2 at 19 p.m., and pay tribute to the victims of the mass murder in Cetinje, Montenegro.
"The news about the mass murder in Cetinje, in which 12 people died, including two children, once again calls us to stop and show deep compassion for those who are suffering and grieving today. Violence and brutality, unfortunately, know no boundaries. That's why empathy and solidarity must cross borders," said the Bravo movement.
They wished the citizens of Cetinje and Montenegro to overcome difficult days together and to build a safer community with new solutions, laws and good practices.
"Novi Sad recently experienced a crime that caused wounds that have not yet healed. A few days ago, Zagreb experienced a murder in a school, while in Bosnia and Herzegovina, the frequency of domestic violence leads citizens to protests. Only together and in solidarity, faced with the problems of our communities, can we get out of the darkness that has surrounded us for a long time," said the Bravo Civic Movement.
