BELGRADE (Reuters) - Thousands gathered in Belgrade on Monday to remember a NATO bombing campaign in 1999 and protest against the development of a luxury compound by an investment company set up by Jared Kushner, the son in law of U.S. President Donald Trump.

Serbia has seen months of anti-government rallies after 16 deaths from a railway station roof collapse triggered accusations of widespread corruption and negligence.
