In mid-October 2026, two separate apartment fires occurred in different municipalities of Belgrade.

On October 19, a fire broke out on Bežanijska kosa in Nikola Dobrović Street, reportedly caused by an unattended cigarette on a ground-floor terrace. A 50-year-old man sustained burns and cuts while attempting to extinguish the flames. Firefighters evacuated the building due to thick smoke but successfully prevented the fire from spreading to other units.

On October 23, a second fire was reported in the Vračar municipality on Jovana Rajića Street. Emergency services, including 19 firefighters and six vehicles, responded to the scene and rescued two individuals from the building. The rescued persons were transported to medical facilities for further care.
