> Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic dissolved parliament and called an early election for October 25 after months of student-led protests demanding political change. Vucic said he intends to run for prime minister, having been barred from seeking another presidential term. The protests began after a railway-station collapse in Novi Sad killed at least 16 people, with demonstrators alleging corruption and poor construction.
