Two years after a catastrophic train collision near Tempi, Greece, which killed 57 people and injured 180, massive protests swept across Greece demanding answers regarding the disaster. Despite public outcry and demonstrations involving over 800,000 people in Athens, many Greeks believe the government is concealing information due to lack of transparency, unaddressed safety issues, and perceived impunity. European bodies had previously flagged serious deficiencies in Greek railway safety systems. Investigations have revealed that driver recordings were altered, and new audio evidence has fueled public anger. Following these revelations, the Prime Minister changed his stance, and footage from the cargo train was released, leading to calls for a parliamentary commission to investigate potential political responsibility.
