🏰 3 years ago at this exact time of day, the cathedral of Notre Dame de Paris started to burn. Dedicated to the Virgin Mary and a jewel of French Gothic architecture, it was built over a Roman temple to Jupiter and completed in 1260 after a century of labor.
🧭 Notre Dame is the point zéro of France, its historical and spiritual center. It has endured centuries of wars, extensive desecration during the French revolution, an attempted destruction during the end of the Paris Commune, and two world wars.
🕯The fate of Notre-Dame and of the French people is one and the same. And as both get damaged by modern tides, time will tell what will happen of them.
Je vous salue, Marie comblée de grâce
Le Seigneur est avec vous
Vous êtes bénie entre toutes les femmes
Et Jésus votre enfant est béni
Sainte Marie, mère de Dieu
Priez pour nous, pauvres pêcheurs
Maintenant et à l'heure de la mort
Amen, Amen, Alléluia

🔴 Immigrant woman shot dead in Evros this Saturday (16)

🔸 The incident happened Saturday night in the Evros river, near Soufli. The Greek patrol located the illegal immigrants using thermal cameras, they were on board an inflatable boat carrying 11 people
🔸The troops tried to prevent them from crossing the river by making gestures and using spotlights. Shots were then fired from the Turkish side probably by Turkey's military
🔸 When the boat arrived the Greek side of the border, only 5 people were on board and one woman was found dead in the water. She was shot in the back at point blank distance with a .22 handgun, probably by the smuggler as such weapons are not used either by Greeks or Turks at the border
🔸 The 5 illegal immigrants on board were all Africans, most likely Ethiopians and have been transferred to Alexandroupolis, one of them was a "minor" and they paid 2000 Euros each to cross the border

A 27 year old Albanian "man" raped a 17 year old student he had met through Instagram.
The man is known to the authorities to be dangerous, and he had been released from imprisonment recently.
A comment from OP, towards all readers:
Trusting strangers like that is a recipe for disaster. You can never truly know who the other person is, and how wicked they really are. Stay safe.

🔴 For the first time, the number illegal immigrants living in the Lesvos camp of Kara Tepe has been reduced and now houses less than 1500
>https://archive.ph/qq8TB
🔸 The immigrant camp initially housed an estimate of 9000 illegal immigrants and was extended previously to increase its capacity. Recently the Greek government has announced that an estimate of 1480 officially live in the camp, while 155 live in juvenile camps.
🔸 It is worth noting that 1/3 of the illegal immigrants in the island of Lesvos have legal documents (Asylum visas), which allow them to travel and they are expected to leave the island shortly

/GBG/🟢 The illegal immigrants that have left the island did not get deported, they instead were transferred to camps or villages in mainland Greece as part of a government move to reduce their presence in the islands and please its inhabitants that were asking for it for a very long time (mostly leftists live in the Greek islands of the Aegean)

🔴 The Ancient Theatre of Epidaurus (4th century BC), Argolis, Greece
The Ancient Theatre of Epidaurus (Peloponnese) is regarded as the best preserved ancient theatre in Greece in terms of its perfect acoustics and fine structure
It was constructed in the late 4th century BC and it was finalized in two stages. Originally the theatre had 34 rows of seats divided into 34 blocks by stairs and walkways.
Due to its incomparable acoustics, the actors can be perfectly heard by all 15,000 spectators. This is a superb example of classical theater with an orchestra and the circular area between the seats and the stage. The highest distance of the concave is 58 meters, while the diameter of the stage is 20 meters

🔴 Turkish analyst: "If we do not acquire new F-16s , the Greek Rafale jets will hit us first"

🔸 The Turkish analyst on CNN Turk stated that Turkey intends to buy new F-16 (BLOCK 70) from the U.S and modernize 80 older units.
🔸 He then stated: "We do not have such modern jets, but Greece has. They have bought from France and continue to acquire more. That's why their purchase has value. If we do not get these aircraft, Greece will see our fighters before we see theirs. Greece will locate and strike our aircraft before we even see them"

🔴 Inflatable boat carrying illegal immigrants to Greece tried to flee from the Greek Coast Guard and ran aground
>https://archive.ph/17Kef
🔸 Eventually the inflatable boat ran aground on a rocky area at Zefyros where the boats of the Coast Guard could not reach. According to information from the Coast Guard, among others, 9 illegal immigrants allegedly from Syria and Palestine (illegal immigrants claim to be from those regions because they can claim asylum and confirming their identities is difficult) were identified, including six men, a woman and two minor girls, while the pilot and another illegal immigrant escaped and are wanted

Discovering the remains of Greco-Roman Egypt. Bust of Neilos from the Ancient Egyptian city of Canopus
This 2000 year old bust depicts Neilos, the Nile river god. Neilos appealed to Egyptians and Greeks alike, he was the Greek version of Hapy, the Egyptian personification of the annual Nile flood that brought prosperity and fertility to Egypt. Neilos played a significant role in one of the most popular festivals in Egypt, when the beginning of the annual flood marked the Egyptian New Year. Nilus was one of 3000 river gods children of the Titans Oceanus and his sister wife Tethys.
Canopus was an ancient Egyptian coastal town, located in the Nile Delta. At Canopus was a temple of Zeus-Canobus, whom Greeks and Egyptians held in equal reverence, and a much frequented shrine and oracle of Serapis. The decline of Canopus began with the rise of Alexandreia, and was completed by the introduction of Christianity into Egypt.
