The families of the victims from Kochani are holding a large protest in Skopje, called "March for the Angels," against corruption and the indifference of the country's system, BGNES reported.

One of their demands is the formation of an expert government. "The fire took the bodies, the system killed the souls," "Where can we find connections to bring our friends back," "Electoral responsibility is irresponsibility," "We are not dying from accidents, but from corruption!" "You burned the children with your greed and indifference." These are just some of the banners carried by the families of those who died in the fire at the Pulse nightclub.

In front of the prosecutor's office, the crowd demanded the resignation of former and current government officials, prosecutors, directors, and mayors.

"You are usurpers, you are not the state, we are the state. We pay you thousands of euros to commit crimes," said Vladimir Apostolov, the father of one of the children who died, speaking on behalf of the families. He read out the names and surnames of current and former ministers of the interior, the Ministry of Economy, directors of the State Market Inspectorate, directors of the Directorate for Protection and Rescue, who, according to him, should have been arrested but were not.

"They don't know who to arrest, I have a list of the most guilty people - from the District Prosecutor's Office - Mr. Kochevski, who will arrest him, who will arrest Lyubomir Yovevski. Have they been arrested? No, they haven't. Where are the bosses that Panche Toshkovski (Minister of the Interior) appointed? Are these bosses in prison? No. Was Oliver Spasovski arrested before him? No. And the ministers of economy, and the directors of the State Market Inspectorate, and the Directorate for Protection and Rescue. And the mayors of Kochani - didn't they know what was happening?" said Apostolovski.

The procession of mourners continues toward Parliament, and protesters called on all MPs to "come out." | BGNES
