Since we're talking about Serbian below, here are some characters from Cyrillic Serbian Alphabet:

Ђ/ђ

Ћ/ћ

Љ/љ

Њ/њ

Џ/џ

Ј/ј

Various diacritical marks, digraph, a jod... What makes this Cyrillic more unambiguous than the Latin equivalents?

None of those are digraphs or have diacritics, each is a single letter/character

Compare with:

Š/S (Š = S + diacritic)

Nj (this "letter" is made up of two other letters)
