Serbia records highest voter turnout in decades

Serbia's election commission says turnout has reached 65%. Allegations of intimidation, violence and voting irregularities have also been raised.

Turnout in Serbia's ongoing vote has reached 65%, the country's election commission has said. According to Al Jazeera, this is the highest level in decades in the Balkan state.

The vote comes as students oppose the country's longtime leader. Their opposition has become one of the central themes of the campaign.

Allegations of irregularities

Alongside the high participation, claims have emerged of voter intimidation, violence and irregularities during voting. The available source text does not detail these allegations, and it does not say who made them or whether they have been confirmed.

The available text also gives no further explanation of the type of vote, its results or the specific politicians involved. These questions remain open until more information becomes available.
