Fourteen policemen were injured in the rioting when hundreds of right-wing demonstrators tried to storm the parliament building in downtown Belgrade on Friday evening.

ABC News chief medical correspondent Dr. Jen Ashton with the latest news on COVID-19.BELGRADE, Serbia -- Serbian police detained 71 people after clashes during the fourth night of anti-government protests against the Serbian president that were initially sparked by his plans to reintroduce a coronavirus lockdown.

The protesters, defying an anti-virus ban on gatherings, threw bottles, rocks and flares at police who were guarding the parliament building, and police responded with tear gas to disperse the angry crowds. Many in Serbia accuse the increasingly authoritarian Vucic and his government of letting the virus crisis spin out of control in order to hold a parliamentaryVucic has denied this, although authorities had relaxed the rules prior to the vote, allowing massive crowds at soccer games, tennis matches and nightclubs.

Vucic has claimed that unspecified foreign security services were involved in the unrest and pledged he won’t be toppled in the streets. Some opposition leaders, meanwhile, are blaming the rioting on groups they say are controlled by the government to discredit peaceful protests.

Wow Serbia!you guys are nuts as ever!

THUGS.

'Right wing' 👌 buddy

And thinking that enemy is invisible and all.what has caused

So, you have to leave the country to find right-wing violence... Thanks for pointing out that in the US, it is the left-wing nuts destroying our country. You don't have to leave the country to find that.. reportwhatmatters

If the insanity of government denial of rights and freedoms and kangaroo courts continues in the U.S. I expect the silent majority here may be inspired by anti-government riots in other places. The Democrats embracing the radical left is making the gulf un crossable!

Here the clue ..republicans and right wingers act like they never do anything wrong and are sinless . they love to blame everything on the left even when they are the ones doing it . they think trump is the son of God and coming to save them .

Where was this coverage when police were getting attacked during the BLM/Antifa riots?

Belgrade police are antifa. Hear that Portland PD?

Covid outbreak?

…strange, there have been countless LEFT wing groups that have terrorized/injured police right here at home and you’re fucking silent. Take your poltiical agenda and shove it .

But I thought only leftists riot 🤷‍♀️
