It's April 1st. This is Global News Today, powered by AI bringing you what matters globally. Relatives of the 57 people killed in Greece's deadliest train crash packed a courtroom in the wrist of this week, pushing hard for Justice 3. Years after the Tempe disaster, the trial kicked off last week, but got postponed amid total chaos and it barely improved when it resumed on Wednesday, with police limiting entry too. These legal participants and families left fuming outside. Most victims were young students heading from Athens to Thessaloniki when their passenger trains slammed head on into a freight train, some even. Burning after the initial wreck, now 36 defendants face up to life sentences, including a station master who missed the mix-up for 10 whole minutes. Families call it a state crime fueled by negligence and corruption, sparking massive protests since unspent EU safety funds and ignored Union warnings. But the outdated rails turned deadly, while the crash site got bulldozed fast, stoking

cover-up talk. Even with the Prime Minister apologizing in the huge case dragging on for years with over 300 witnesses, no politicians are charged, leaving relatives packed like sardines and still waiting for real answers as proceedings grind forward.
