(240201) -- KARDITSA, Feb. 1, 2024 (Xinhua) -- This photo taken on Jan. 30, 2024 shows farmers blocking highways with tractors during their protests near Karditsa, Greece. Greek farmers are planning protests across the country for Feb. 1, demanding sufficient financial aid pledged by the government with no delays.
Representatives of farmers' associations gathered to discuss mobilization plans at Palamas municipality in the Thessaly region in central Greece, one of the country's main agricultural production regions.
According to official estimates, the area was hit hard by a storm in September that caused extensive flooding, resulting in 15 fatalities and huge material damage amounting to about one billion euros (roughly 1.08 billion U.S. dollars). (Xinhua/Marios Lolos)
