Occurred on January 11, 2023 / Belgrade, Serbia
Info from Licensor: "A boat is shooting fireworks while sailing under the 'Old Sava Bridge.' The bridge was built by the German occupiers during WW2 (under the name Prinz Eugene Bridge) and it was famously one of the very few bridges (one being the famous Remagen bridge on the Rhine) that was captured before the retreating Germans could demolish it (this one was captured by the Red Army - the sailors of their riverine flotilla and a local man, an ex-army sapper, take most of the credit for cutting the wires of the demolition charges). The bridge is planned to be removed and replaced by a modern, wider one. The boat and the fireworks are apparently (so I am told but I am not sure) hired by a local sports betting company 'Soccer Bet' (such companies often launder organized crime money) to announce that the biggest win in the history of the company has been paid."
