TL;DR Summary

Protests have erupted in Serbia following a series of mass shootings that have left 18 people dead. The opposition has blamed the ruling Serbian Progressive Party (SNS) and tens of thousands of demonstrators have taken to the streets to demand the resignation of government figures and a ban on reality shows with violent content. President Aleksandar Vucic is planning a counter-demonstration to show his strength, but there are concerns that public employees are being forced to attend. The opposition is offering free legal aid to those who rally, but the judiciary is largely controlled by Vucic.
