A 40-year-old woman from Komotini has tragically become Greece's first femicide victim of 2025. The woman, who was hospitalized for two months following a brutal assault allegedly at the hands of her partner, passed away on January 3rd.

Riot police entered and ended a “sit-in” occupation of the tertiary law school in the northeast border city of Komotini on Monday afternoon, with 18 individuals detained and taken to a local precinct.

Contradictory, but largely expected, messages were sent by Mevlüt Çavuşoglu on the first day of his visit to Greece.
