Greece came to a standstill on Friday as a 24-hour general strike and mass protests swept across the country.
The demonstrations mark two years since the Tempi train disaster, which killed 57 people, and reflect growing frustration over government inaction on railway safety.
The strike has affected public transport, flights, businesses, and public services, bringing daily life to a halt. Protesters are calling for justice and accountability for the victims, arguing that safety failures leading to the crash have not been properly addressed.
The Greek government insists that the judiciary is responsible for investigating the tragedy, but many citizens believe more action is needed to prevent future disasters. The protests highlight ongoing concerns about infrastructure safety and government oversight.
With thousands taking to the streets, the country faces one of its largest strikes in recent years, underscoring the deep public anger that remains two years after the deadly crash.
