After the third match of the ABA league playoff final series between Partizan and Budućnost, unpleasant scenes occurred on the Gazela Bridge in Belgrade. Delije fans, allegedly on about 20 scooters, intercepted Partizan fans and attacked them with metal rods. There are no official confirmations of injuries. This incident is considered retaliation for a previous attack by Grobari in the 21st block, one of the largest strongholds of Zvezda fans. In another related incident, a Grobari fan was shot and wounded on Gazela, further escalating tensions between the fan groups.
Political Perspectives:
Left: Left-leaning sources tend to emphasize the social and community impact of the violence, highlighting the dangers of hooliganism and the need for better security and social programs to prevent such incidents. They may also focus on the broader societal issues that fuel such conflicts, such as economic disparities and youth disenfranchisement.
Center: Center-leaning reports focus on the factual recounting of the events, providing balanced coverage of the incidents without strong bias. They report on the sequence of events, the ongoing investigations, and the responses from authorities and fan groups, emphasizing the need for law enforcement to maintain order.
Right: Right-leaning outlets often emphasize law and order, condemning the violence and calling for stricter penalties for hooligans. They may also highlight the rivalry between fan groups as a reflection of deeper cultural or regional tensions, sometimes framing the incidents as a challenge to public safety and national pride.
