The mayor of the municipality of Šuto Orizari, Kurto Dudush, announced a protest in front of the building of the City of Skopje from 1:30 p.m. on Friday (November 22). The reason for the protest is the worsening situation with public transportation, which causes huge problems for the citizens.

- We face the same problem every day - people wait for hours at bus stations. We cannot allow our children, women and old people to suffer in these minus temperatures, after two to three hours waiting for a bus, which may or may not come - said Dudush in a video address on his Facebook profile.

He added that the protest will be peaceful and called on all citizens, regardless of ethnicity, to join, because the problem with public transportation affects the entire city.

– This is not just Shuto Orizari's problem. This is a problem that affects all citizens of Skopje - emphasized Dudush.

The mayor expressed hope that the protest will encourage a reaction from the competent institutions and that measures will be taken to improve public transportation in the capital.

Residents of Shuto Orizari face huge challenges due to the lack of public transport, especially in recent cold weeks. The inability to get to work, school or the doctor on time forces citizens to look for alternative solutions, such as sharing the cost of taxis, which significantly burdens their budget.

Early this morning, in front of the Club of the Party for the Complete Emancipation of the Roma, which is located in a cafe in Tetovo, a hand bomb was thrown, which fortunately did not explode. The perpetrator first broke one glass of the door and left the bomb there. But since it didn't explode, he went back to check if the bomb had been detonated. After he failed to activate it, he left. All this was recorded on the security cameras of the surrounding buildings.

The president of PCER Samka Ibraimovski does not know why someone wanted to demolish their club and for now he does not see a political background in this act.

"At 4:23 a.m. the person came here, broke the glass, threw the bomb, it didn't explode, so he had the courage to go back to see if the bomb was activated or not." Luckily it wasn't activated, if it had been it would have done a lot of damage. Our member from the party who came to the club this morning started sweeping the broken glass without noticing the bomb, so he could unwittingly detonate it. It is an older type kashikara bomb that has a great destructive effect. We, as a political party, have no objections nor have we complained to anyone except for some misunderstandings with the executors. "Whether that is the reason or something else, I hope we will find out soon," said Ibraimovski.

At the scene, police officers from SVR Tetovo conducted an investigation, and the anti-terrorism team safely removed the unexploded hand grenade.
