Black balloons were released in memory of the 57 people who died

There were violent clashes between police and protesters in front of the parliament in Athens over the country’s worst train crash ever seen.

About 12,000 people gathered in front of the Parliament building in Greece.

They released black balloons into the sky in memory of the 57 people who died as a result of a head-on collision between a passenger train and a freight train last week.

Some protesters set fire to garbage cans and threw Molotov cocktails.

Police responded with tear gas and stun grenades.

Earlier in the day, The Prime Minister asked for forgiveness from the relatives of the victims of the disaster.

“It is unacceptable that in Greece in 2023, two trains move towards each other on the same track and no one notices,” he said.

Calls are growing louder from many lawmakers and national security hawks to ban TikTok, over fears the app could censure content, influence users, and give Americans’ personal data to Beijing.
