Mass shootings in Serbia are extremely rare.

Experts, however, have repeatedly warned of the number of weapons left over in the country after the wars of the 1990s.

Police sealed off the blocks around the Vladislav Ribnikar school, in the center of Belgrade.

Primary schools in Serbia have eight grades.
