In Uzice, near the end of the protests on which traffic was blocked on the highway leading to Belgrade and Zlatibor, a woman from a car with Belgrade license plates attacked Nova.rs reporter Slavica Panic and, with swearing and insults, broke her mobile phone, with which she filmed the protest. The journalist told Danas: “While I was filming, a woman got out of the car and started shouting at me and cursing me, and then she hit me on the hand where I was holding my mobile phone and it fell out of my hand into the street. “. She added that she attacked her, probably because she thought she was filming only her.
