Journalist and editor Razglas News Zarko Bogosavljević was physically attacked at an event in Novi Sad on February 16, 2026. year.

In the video that is spreading on social networks, Bogosavljević can be heard repeatedly introducing himself as a journalist and emphasizing that he is on the field to do his job, but that did not stop the attacker from pouncing on him. The police were nearby and again did not react to the attacks.

In the same group where Žarko was, there were several other colleagues from Reuters, Odjek and Storyteller, who were also pushed and exposed to aggression, but Bogosavljević was the only one who received several blows, as he told NUNS.

All the journalists present were visibly marked with journalist badges.
