BBC World Service - BBC OS, Anger in Greece over train crash

The train disaster has caused an outpouring of grief and anger in Greece

The train disaster has caused an outpouring of grief and anger in Greece.

Rail workers across Greece have begun a one-day strike after Tuesday's train crash which killed at least 43 people. We hear from people who have taken part in protests near the site of the disaster. 

A fractious meeting of G-20 nations in India has failed to produce a joint statement because of divisions over Russia's war against Ukraine. We get the latest from our correspondent and hear from Indians about their government's stance on the war.

Following the deaths of 63 migrants in Italy earlier this week, we hear a conversation with two people – one from Iraq, another from Iran – about their journeys to Europe.

Two West African states are repatriating their citizens from Tunisia following inflammatory remarks by President Kais Saied last week. Our Africa regional editor explains.
