Anti-government protests continued on Friday in Belgrade, where thousands rallied against Serbia's President Aleksandar Vucic and government policies, including its handling of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The protest occurred one day after Serbian authorities banned gatherings of more than 10 people in the capital following two nights of violent clashes between police and protesters opposing COVID-19 lockdown measures.

Police in full riot gear and mounted units were deployed outside the parliament building to prevent Vucic's opponents from storming it. Pelting police officers with rocks and signal flares, protesters chanted "we will not give up Kosovo" and "Vucic thief."
