The memorial march for the first anniversary of the national railway tragedy 2023 has been underway in Thessaloniki since early morning as well.

Shortly before 13:30, the march took a violent turn as it reached Monastiriou Street outside the OSE Thessaloniki, where clashes between demonstrators and the police unfolded.

Specifically, there were many Molotov cocktail incendiary bombs and stones thrown by individuals with hoods, while anti-riot police responded with the use of flash-bang and tear gas grenades.

Later on, the unrest continued on Egnatia Street, where the same individuals set bins on fire and set up barricades.
