Nationwide Strike Called In Greece To Mark Second Anniversary Of Tempe Rail Disaster

An aerial panoramic view from a drone shows hundreds of thousands of people demonstrating in Athens, Greece, on February 28, 2025, in front of the Hellenic Parliament, Syntagma Square, and all the surrounding roads, occupying kilometers, to mark the second anniversary of a train collision disaster at Tempi, known as the Tempi train crash, which killed 57 people in 2023. Thousands of protesters gather in Athens to demand justice two years after Greece's deadliest train crash. The tragedy, which occurs on February 28, 2023, near Tempi in northern Greece, kills 57 people, including university students and train crew members. In response to the crash's aftermath, workers stage a nationwide strike, halting flights, sea, and land transport, while shops close and theatres cancel performances. Demonstrators express their anger at the perceived lack of accountability for the devastating incident, accusing authorities of a cover-up and demanding the resignation of the current government. The protest is one of the largest ever recorded in the country. (Photo by STR/NurPhoto)
