๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ท Today massive protests took place across Greece in support of the families of the Tempi train crash victims, after a call by the โ€œTempi 2023โ€ association.

The people demonstrated their disdain for the governmentโ€™s handling of the case and demanded justice for the victims. Massive crowds attended the demonstrations in Athens, Thessaloniki, Patras, Heraklion and Larissa. Meanwhile, the police tried to downplay the number of attendants, saying that only 30,000 attended the Athens gathering! Despite leftist organisations trying to peddle the protests, it can be clearly concluded that they were attended by people from the entire social spectrum.

Some of the messages caught our attention and we are publishing them here.

๐Ÿ’ฌ Needless to say the channelโ€™s owner attended the demonstration.

๐Ÿ‡ณ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ณ๐Ÿ‡ฌโŒ๐Ÿด โ€” Nigerian armed forces continue their offensive against ISWAP territory in the 'Timbuktu Triangle', south west of Maiduguri, near Damboa.

โžก๏ธ Started on the 16th January, Operation Desert Sanity IV aims at dismantling ISWAP strongholds in the North-East region.

โžก๏ธThe military claims to have taken the 4 towns of Jemyeri, Abulam, Agum, and Digamari from ISWAP terrorists in the past 10 days of the offensive, killing more than 60 ISWAP militants.

โžก๏ธ22+ soldiers were killed during the operation so far, and dozens more injured.

โžก๏ธ The armed forces also shot down some drones ISWAP terrorists were using for reconnaissance and (likely) as kamikaze/delivery drones, several IEDs and SVBIEDs were used against Nigerian troops, notably an SVBIED was used against the soldiers in Gardari base, resutling in the death of the Commanding Officer of the operation and others.

โžก๏ธISWAP is yet to comment on the battles, but it is important to note that in previous offensives of this kind, towns were ISWAP is disloged usually come back to its control after the army leaves them, as Abulam for example which was recaptured by the military in 2022 but now is getting re-recaptured 3 years later.

๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡ฉ Sudan Army's Victory in Wad Madani: A Turning Point in the War

The Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) have achieved a major victory by recapturing Wad Madani, one of Sudan's largest cities, from the Rapid Support Forces (RSF). This marks a pivotal moment in the ongoing conflict that has devastated the country since April 2024. The city's liberation is the result of a meticulously planned four-month counter-offensive launched during the dry season.

The RSF withdrew without a fight, as they had done in other key locations earlier. This victory shifts the frontline northward, closer to Khartoum, and deals a significant blow to the RSF's operations in central Sudan.

๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฉ Goma Falls: M23 Rebels Seize Key City in Eastern DRC

The M23 rebel group has captured Goma, the capital of North Kivu province in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo, marking a major escalation in the ongoing conflict. The rebels surrounded the city on Sunday and issued an ultimatum for Congolese forces to surrender by Monday morning.

Regional tensions have soared with the DRC accusing Rwanda of backing the rebels. Kenya's President Ruto, as EAC chair, has called an urgent regional summit to address the crisis. Meanwhile, humanitarian concerns grow as thousands flee the fighting.
