Thousands of demonstrators in Greece have marched to the parliament building in the capital, Athens, to protest against delays in an investigation over a train crash in 2023.

The protesters, mainly students, demand justice claiming a lack of transparency from authorities.
The two trains had been travelling toward each other on the same track for 19 minutes without triggering any alarms.
