For a fifth consecutive night, protests erupted across Serbia, with demonstrators targeting offices of the ruling Serbian Progressive Party.
Windows were smashed at party headquarters.
President Aleksander Vučić has vowed to punish those involved in the attacks, and riot police were deployed in response to the unrest.
