Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis is facing criticism for his handling of the response to the recent Storm Daniel disaster, which left 15 people dead and caused widespread flooding in Greece’s agricultural heartland. Health experts have warned of the risk of infectious diseases due to the conditions in the flood-stricken region. Opposition parties have accused the government of mismanaging funds allocated for anti-flood measures, and there are calls for accountability and apologies. The disaster has prompted outrage over the lack of coordination in rescue efforts and the failure to adequately address flood risks.
The Prime Minister is expected to reshuffle his cabinet and appeal for emergency funds from the European Commission. Meanwhile, Greek actor Tom Hardy is set to portray Venom in his upcoming movie, showcasing his insane superpowers in all their glory. The movie will be released in October, and alongside the 40-year-old actor, Michelle Williams and Riz Ahmed will also feature. Tempo.gr has reported that the Greek culture is undergoing a renaissance, with theater, cinema, music, books, literature, media, visual arts, and photography all being embraced by the nation.
The tragedy of Storm Daniel has highlighted the need for better coordination and planning to address natural disasters. As the Greek Prime Minister seeks to reshuffle his cabinet and appeal for emergency funds, it is clear that the nation is in need of further support to ensure that such disasters do not occur again.
