More than 50,000 opposition supporters rallied in front of the Serbian parliament, demanding early elections in a bid to oust the ruling coalition.

The rally, organized by the biggest opposition group, the Serbian Progressive Party, drew about 55,000 people, according to a police estimate, as opposition leaders accused the government of failings including corruption, incompetence and economic mismanagement, and gave it two months to call an early vote or face daily street protests.
