Singer Jakov Jozinović faces backlash over Niš concerts

Singer Jakov Jozinović is facing significant public backlash and isolation following his decision to perform concerts in Niš, Serbia. The scheduled performances at the Čair hall on November 14 and 15 coincide with the anniversaries of the fall of Vukovar and the massacre in Škabrnja.

Despite pleas from veterans' associations and the public to show respect for the victims of these historical events, Jozinović proceeded with the shows, citing that music is not connected to politics. Critics have characterized the move as an act of opportunism driven by profit over historical sensitivity.
