First of all it's Senta not Zenta, it's a small town in Northern part of Serbia (Vojvodina) near Hungarian border and about 140km North of Belgrade,
the capital.
Senta, Srbija (map)
Also, "Politika" has nothing on their website regarding this occurrence, no search results come up nor is there anything for August 2, 2008 or
around relating to UFOs in Senta. The only item mentioning UFOs was on the
front page of August 3, 2008 edition
about the extradition of Gary McKinnon from UK.
If there was anything posted it must have been removed in the mean time or the OP fabricated the whole thing...

I ave found this version of the story with a few more details and the actual names of the journalist covering it-
UFO And Alien Sighting In Serbia
by Matija Soskic
Two unidentified craft and a being, described as an alien, was spotted by over thirty witnesses in Serbia.
Serbian Radio Stations have been flooded by calls from the town of Zenta, where a cluster of cars leaving the town westward have been halted on the
road as two craft identical one to the other landed on the roadway.
It is being reported that one was hazy completely and blue light covered it, the other was more clear and cone shape with flat top.
One hovered and a being described as grey-green four foot with large black eyes a small mouth and no ears floated to earth from a mere height of one
meter then quickly returned to the craft and both sped off.
Witnesses included two truck drivers, a town GP, two nurses, and other labourers.
The authorities came to the scene and dispersed the crowd that gathered.
Local police are claiming what was seen was a set of party balloons. However all witnesses say this is out of the question and that the crafts were
sophisticated, humming, glowing and shot off upwards.
Witnesses say the alien was life-like and moved as a human.
One witness Alexander Petrovic says, “this was the strangest thing I ever saw and cannot accept it was a balloon.”
