A tragic incident unfolded on the Danube River between Serbia and Croatia, resulting in the death of one individual and the rescue of several others. According to Serbian police, a boat carrying at least 10 Chinese nationals capsized late Sunday evening near the Serbian town of Backa Palanka, approximately 90 kilometers northwest of Belgrade. The victims were reportedly attempting to cross the border illegally. Serbian rescuers recovered the body of one person and successfully saved four others, all of whom are Chinese nationals. Meanwhile, teams in neighboring Croatia located three men and two women, also from China. Serbia is a key transit point on the Balkan migration route, which many migrants use to reach Western Europe. In recent years, China has significantly invested in infrastructure projects across central and eastern Europe, leading to an increase in the visibility of Chinese emigrants in these regions.
