Serbia lithium-rich region: Locals threaten to block EU-backed mining
People in a small village in Serbia are fighting to block an EU-backed lithium mine in their valley.
Last month the government restored mining company Rio Tinto’s licence to extract the mineral, which is used in electric vehicles.
Environmentalists and activists have planned a major rally in the capital Belgrade on Saturday.
