Greece’s minister for infrastructure and transport, Kostas Karamanlis, has resigned in the aftermath of a deadly train crash in the country.
At least 36 people have been killed after a passenger train and freight train collided, and dozens of people have been injured.
Mr Karamanlis visited the crash site in the aftermath of the collision, and said: "when something so tragic happens, it is impossible to continue and pretend like it didn’t happen”.
Meanwhile, a local station master based at Larissa, which the passenger train had passed through, has been arrested.
Police say the 59-year-old has been charged with manslaughter by negligence and grievous bodily harm by negligence.
