**Serbian Protesters Call for Investigation**
A petition has been launched to demand an investigation into the use of a sonic cannon against peaceful protesters in Belgrade on March 15. The petition is calling for officials from the UN, the Council of Europe, and the OSCE to look into the incident.
Over 460,000 people have signed the petition by Monday morning. It demands that those responsible be held accountable and that international guidelines be established to prevent the use of sonic weapons against civilians in peacetime.
