Transportation will be heavily disrupted, affecting flights, shipping, and local businesses. Protesters are mobilizing across the country and internationally to demand justice for the victims and answers about accountability. The event underscores the profound societal impact of the tragedy, particularly for the families of those lost, who continue to seek accountability two years later.
The tragedy sent shockwaves through Greek society, with many realizing how easily it could have been their own children, friends riding that train.
