In a powerful show of solidarity, thousands of workers across Greece poured onto the streets on February 28, marking the second anniversary of the nation's deadliest train crash. This event, which tragically took 57 lives, has fueled ongoing protests demanding better rail safety measures and accountability from officials.
Labor unions orchestrated a 24-hour strike that halted public transportation, grounded flights, and closed shops and schools. Demonstrators rallied in Athens and other major cities, carrying banners and flowers to honor the victims. Striking workers included teachers, healthcare staff, and even artists who canceled performances in solidarity.
Protesters voiced their frustration over the slow judicial inquiries and the absence of political accountability, which continues to ignite public anger. Support systems like free rides were organized for demonstrators to ensure their voices are heard louder than ever.
