The nation's technological capabilities received a boost with the inauguration of the 'DAIDALOS' supercomputer at a new Data Center in Lavrio. Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis, leader of the New Democracy party, attended the ceremony for this significant infrastructure, which is expected to have a substantial impact on various practical applications across the country.
In tragic news, a migrant speed boat capsized off the coast of Samos, leading to six fatalities and the rescue of 14 individuals. This incident follows closely on another maritime tragedy near Lesvos. Meanwhile, disturbing allegations of abuse have led to the hospitalization of three siblings in Crete, reportedly perpetrated by their mother and her partner.
Other domestic developments include the ongoing court proceedings for the Tempi train disaster, with victims' families and survivors participating. The Athens Stock Exchange is also preparing for a significant event with the upcoming listing of Capital Maritime Finance.
