# Independent Journalists' Association of Serbia (NUNS)

The Independent Journalists' Association of Serbia keeps a database of attacks on journalists, which recorded more than 280 incidents and 90 physical attacks from the start of 2025 to the end of October, and files criminal complaints on journalists' behalf, most of which go nowhere. It warned that by publishing journalists' initials in a press release the prosecution “puts a target” on them. Together with others, it filed a criminal complaint against Nevena Đurić, chair of a parliamentary committee, for failing to start the selection of the Council of the Regulatory Authority for Electronic Media (REM). The association itself was also put on the list of the Administration for the Prevention of Money Laundering.
