Al-Taj News – More than 10,000 students, teachers, and public sector employees demonstrated in the Greek capital, Athens, and other cities, in social and protest news reported on Wednesday, protesting the rising cost of living, deteriorating school infrastructure, and the shortage of teaching staff.

Protesters in Athens, Thessaloniki, and Patras raised slogans demanding the provision of free education and higher wages, along with support for teachers, at a time when schools are facing a shortage of more than 15,000 teachers, in addition to collapsing ceilings and heating breakdowns.

The public sector trade union confederation (ADEDY) also took part in the marches following the announcement of a partial strike, praising the similar protests in France.
