During a rally organized by the Serbian Progressive Party (SNS), the news crew from KTV, including journalist Nemanja Šarović, was attacked by SNS supporters. According to reports and videos shared on social media, the crew was first verbally assaulted and then physically attacked by a group of attendees, including individuals wearing green markers—designated as security staff responsible for maintaining order at the event.
Šarović stated on the social media platform X that a KTV technician had three teeth knocked out, and that he, along with Danijel and Siniša, sustained multiple bruises and swellings. Their camera and other equipment were also severely damaged.
Despite the seriousness of the incident, there is currently no information indicating that any of the attackers have been arrested, raising further concerns among media organizations and the public.
