The protest of the informal group ‘Rebel University’ in front of the Government of Serbia building has been ongoing for several days, blocking the intersection of Kneza Miloša and Nemanjina streets in Belgrade. The protest has caused significant traffic congestion and changes in public transport routes, as participants demand reforms in the education system. Traffic is partially halted, and police are redirecting vehicles through surrounding streets. The protest is supported by parts of the academic community and citizens, with organizers setting up tents and metal fences at the intersection.
