In Knez Mihailova Street in Belgrade, where the Embassy of Montenegro is located, several people gathered and set and lit torches and smoke bombs and chanted.

Part of the Montenegrin media, referring to the writings of media close to the Serbian Progressive Party of Aleksandar Vučić, mainly tabloids, announced that the citizens gathered dissatisfied with the decision of Prime Minister Zdravko Krivokapić to initiate the procedure for the dismissal of the Minister of Justice, Human and Minority Rights Vladimir Leposavić.

N1 and Nova.rs, on the other hand, report that it is suspected that the 100 m long smoke bombs were planted by the Crvena zvezda fan group.

It is assumed that this is an "overture" before the Eternal Derby that Red Star and Partizan will play on Wednesday.

Blic announced that they do not know the exact reason for the incident, and that they have two versions, one of which is about a protest against Leposavic, and the other about fans of one of the Belgrade clubs.

According to N1, three people were detained.

Nova.rs announced that a group of minors lit smoke bombs.

"Suddenly there was smoke. No one knew what was happening. Then I saw a group of juveniles running on the street. Soon the police also appeared," one of the passers-by told Nova.rs.
