Bosnians took to the streets in Sarajevo , voicing anger over the government's handling of the October floods that claimed 27 lives.
Hundreds gathered in Sarajevo on Monday , demanding accountability from authorities for the deaths of 27 people in October’s devastating floods. Protesters criticized the slow recovery efforts, including delayed reconstruction and a lack of aid distribution, despite donations from the European Union and other foreign nations.

Protesters expressed solidarity with students in neighboring Serbia, who have been protesting against their government following a deadly railway station disaster in November.
