day in the central city of larissa. he's is expected to be asked to why a passenger train with more than $350.00 people on board was allowed to run on the same line as a free trade. the prime minister says the crash near larissa in central greece on tuesday was caused by human error or could have been working day and night to search debris as anxious relatives waits for news of their loved ones. john tor apple is report from the crash site in narisa. daylight reveals the scene of the disaster. the driver of the passenger train emerging from an under purse may have had no time to react to the oncoming freight train to mangled engines testify to the severity of the impact. all that's left of the front to passenger occurs is a pile of mangled debris. the 3rd curve, partly on top of them, cranes delicately picked the wreckage apart. piece by piece, just in case the survivor is found. but hope is almost gone. then on the bulk of

honey, i don't think there any other thought we've looked everywhere. i don't think there's any one left inside survivors emerging in the immediate aftermath of the disaster. we're trying to understand what happened. but i still hope oliver. i'm a god boy. i jumped on him that we fell down. a woman with her child was with us. the train caught fire next to us and this guy found a whole, so we all managed to get out with that the only committee floated all train had been 90 degrees and had fallen over the cliff. half of it was hanging india and the whole thing was on fire. there were 5 wounded where i was. the immediate blame fell on the light, is a station master arrested for manslaughter. he reportedly confessed that he tried unsuccessfully to switch the passenger train on to a different track as it left the station. not bothering to report that the switches had failed, and not suspecting the horror that would follow an estimated $82.00 passengers are

missing. but only about half that number of bodies has been recovered, the rest may never be retrieved because the fire that engulfed the 1st 2 cars of this train was so hot, more than a 1000 degrees celsius, were told. it may have cremated the victims exactly where they were killed. prime minister courier caused me to thank you, says a commission of experts will probe the causes of the accident and lack of safety culture in the greek railway network. and let's get an update now from john who's joining us live from our side a hospital near the scene of the accident. john, tell us about what you've been able to see this morning at the hospital. what? hello, holly. i was just earlier inside the hospital building in the emphasis for were about 2 dozen relatives were being briefed by the deputy health minister who's here on the process of dna,

identification of their loved ones remains. they are being taken to the dna lab where they're going to give samples and then they're going to have to wait for the samples to be compared with those of the remains that have been brought here. i, i needn't tell you the scene is one of very great sorrow. most of the people i saw were couples, which leads me to believe that they're looking for children. one woman just had her head in her hands. other people were staring ahead of them ahead blankly. these people were not speaking. they weren't protesting, they weren't angry. they, i think in a state of shock. i spoke, i live with the health minister about what the process of identification isn't here as well. she had to say, we have a list of the people that are trying to find their relatives. ah,

also we have some bodies are already here and we will do this identification with their dna in order to see if they have been found a band. so this is a very difficult process and of course us a difficult process and psychologically so we need to support them through this difficult days. and of course, so we will try to do our best regarding the time that we take this procedure of the identification a difficult process as the deputy year or minister said there are john. oh, a very difficult moment for these families. unimaginable what they're going through . talk to us about the latest in the investigation. now, we're expecting the station manager at the season. shoot station master. sorry to appear in court later today. that's right. he has

confessed, we're told to not failing to switch the passenger train on to a safe track. and for failing to alert any one to the fact that those switches hadn't worked. of course, we don't know for sure what the truth of the matter is that his, his story. we expect that he will be charged as early as today. but the business of apportioning blame goes well beyond the larisa station master i just 3 weeks ago, one of the unions of railway workers published a very angry protest after 2 non fatal accidents revealed the problems and safety procedures that exist throughout the greek rail network. not just here and they said, we are not going to wait for the accident to happen. we demand that hellenic train,

the operator of the trains on the track, and the greek state which owns and is responsible for the maintenance of the track, higher safety personnel to maintain rolling stock, to maintain safety procedures, to upgrade the infrastructure so that we have safer infrastructure we need those investments to happen now. they were very clear and what they were demanding and they were very clear in this clarion call that an a disaster is about to take place . so i think once the smoke clears from this particular accident and from the sorrow of the families who have victims in this particular accident, people are going to want to know what else is going to be done so that this never happens again. that was the prime ministers promise last night that this will never happen again. john, thank you very much for that. i think john therapy is reporting their live from

3 months, that caused anger and confusion among people across the country. docile jabari has a story from tehran. ha, the latest attack on girls in school. this one came on wednesday at an elementary school in a to her on neighborhood young girls receiving medical care after the latest suspected use of poison gas in the classroom. i can't breathe. she says less than 24 hours earlier in a suburb, just east of to her on similar scenes that these girls were also poisoned while sitting at their desk, written down. at least 35 of them were rushed to hospital with symptoms including severe headaches, nausea, vomiting and dizzy. no, man, i smelled something like gas am all the students the to. but i felt it more because i have asthma. and when i came back to the classroom, i couldn't tolerate to smell. and when i left, i felt on the stairs, but okay,

i smell something like gas and as we left the classroom, i felt really sick. i was coughing and couldn't breathe. i did it in the holy city of comb, multiples, hacks of taken place, hundreds of girls were hospitalized. you must find that she was paralyzed from 2 weeks now and she couldn't walk at o. where were those officials to come and see that my daughter could even walk? yeah, parents are angry at what many c as a targeted attack on girls education. and they blamed local officials for not doing enough to protect their children. the 1st cases emerge in late november sun, where students at the nor yes don't shock. conservatory fell ill, came ill again in december. so that a ball in one of her all, miller hall, seattle hung law. we have not identified the cause of the incident so far. the issue is being followed by the relevant bodies and hopefully we will find details soon and share it with the public. we should refrain from creating fear. the head of the education committee in parliament has confirmed that nitrogen gas was

detected in the poison used at some of the schools. a committee made up of different authorities has been form to investigate, and the president has also asked the interior ministry to get involved. as confusing lack of clarity on these increasing attacks continue. parents are becoming angrier and more fearful for the future of their daughters in iran, dorsal jabari al jazeera to hong sedans. western region of dawn for has seen repeated plays of violence in the past 5 years. thus, despite a peace deal signed in 2022 and years of war, hundreds of thousands have been displaced by the fighting. he bought morgan reports from north star for hedge. abraham is waiting in line at this them some camp and to dance north dar for to receive money as the farmer she prefers to earn her living by selling her harvests. but with continuing insecurity across the state, it is very difficult and she is reliant on this eat persona, getting them in her. i went to the phone with my kids last and an aunt mine came.
