One mayor said that protesters rammed a car into his home and then set the vehicle on fire, injuring his wife and one of his children. In a separate attack, the police said, rioters had tried to set fire to a car belonging to another mayor.

An undated handout photo provided by the Greek Coast Guard shows the ship before it capsized.Hellenic Coast Guard/Reuters Greece’s fatal inaction at sea Last month, more than 600 people died when a migrant boat, the Adriana, sank in the Mediterranean. A Times investigation using satellite imagery, radio signals, sealed court documents and more than 20 interviews with survivors and officials found that [hundreds of deaths could have been prevented](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRmhGqBP0T8aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMy8wNy8wMS93b3JsZC9ldXJvcGUvZ3JlZWNlLW1pZ3JhbnQtc2hpcC5odG1sP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTcmZW1jPWVkaXRfbWJhZV8yMDIzMDcwMyZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD05NjU3OCZubD1tb3JuaW5nLWJyaWVmaW5nJTNBLWFzaWEtcGFjaWZpYy1lZGl0aW9uJnJlZ2lfaWQ9Nzc2NzQ5NTImc2VnbWVudF9pZD0xMzgyMjMmdGU9MSZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3VwNueXRCCmScgeWhZGdluN1SG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAA~~). The Greek authorities have repeatedly said that the Adriana was sailing to Italy. But the Times investigation shows definitively that the Adriana was drifting in a loop for its last six and a half hours. Survivors said that passengers called for help and that some tried to jump aboard a tanker that had stopped to give out drinking water, my colleagues report. These accounts contradict Greek claims that the migrants did not want to be rescued. Instead, as panic rose, the Greek government treated the situation like a law enforcement operation, not a rescue. A hellish class system: The passengers collectively paid as much as $3.5 million to be smuggled to Italy. Survivors said Pakistanis were at the bottom of the ship; women and children were in the middle; and Syrians, Palestinians and Egyptians were at the top. [Only 12 Pakistanis, out of at least 350, survived](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRmhGqBP4R-AWh0dHBzOi8vd3d3Lm55dGltZXMuY29tLzIwMjMvMDYvMjEvd29ybGQvYXNpYS9wYWtpc3Rhbi1ncmVlay1taWdyYW50cy1zaGlwLmh0bWw_YWN0aW9uPWNsaWNrJmJsb2NrPXN0b3J5bGluZV9tZW51X3JlY2lyYyZjYW1wYWlnbl9pZD03JmVtYz1lZGl0X21iYWVfMjAyMzA3MDMmaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9OTY1NzgmbmFtZT1zdHlsbi1taWdyYW50LWJvYXQtZ3JlZWNlJm5sPW1vcm5pbmctYnJpZWZpbmclM0EtYXNpYS1wYWNpZmljLWVkaXRpb24mcGd0eXBlPUFydGljbGUmcmVnaV9pZD03NzY3NDk1MiZyZWdpb249VE9QX0JBTk5FUiZzZWdtZW50X2lkPTEzODIyMyZ0ZT0xJnVzZXJfaWQ9YWE0OTFlZjdmMWQ5NjRlNDk3OWZiNzg0ZTc0ZTAxZDcmdmFyaWFudD11bmRlZmluZWRXA255dEIKZJyB5aFkZ2W43VIbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAA). The women and young children went down with the ship. Context: E.U. authorities often postpone rescues out of fear that helping will embolden smugglers to send more people on ever flimsier ships. As European politics have swung to the right, each new arriving ship is a potential political flashpoint. In Kabul’s snooker halls, young men in jeans regularly yell “nice shot” in English.Jim Huylebroek for The New York Times U.S. influences endure in Kabul Since the Taliban toppled the Western-backed government nearly two years ago, most vestiges of the U.S. nation-building effort in Afghanistan have been erased. But [the cultural legacy of two decades of American occupation](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRmhGqBP4QKAWh0dHBzOi8vd3d3Lm55dGltZXMuY29tLzIwMjMvMDYvMjkvd29ybGQvYXNpYS9rYWJ1bC1hZmdoYW5pc3Rhbi13ZXN0ZXJuLWluZmx1ZW5jZS5odG1sP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTcmZW1jPWVkaXRfbWJhZV8yMDIzMDcwMyZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD05NjU3OCZubD1tb3JuaW5nLWJyaWVmaW5nJTNBLWFzaWEtcGFjaWZpYy1lZGl0aW9uJnJlZ2lfaWQ9Nzc2NzQ5NTImc2VnbWVudF9pZD0xMzgyMjMmdGU9MSZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3VwNueXRCCmScgeWhZGdluN1SG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAA~~) lives on in snooker halls, video game dens, coffee shops and bookstores. The enduring influence is most striking in Kabul, which became a hub of international attention after the U.S. invasion. Now, across Afghanistan, women are barred from high schools and colleges. But in some cafes in the capital, they can still listen to music and even mingle with men, in defiance of verbal edicts from the Taliban. Takeaway: For some members of the young urban generation, these cafes and stores are an escape from the reality of a country being remade by the Taliban government, which often feels more foreign to them than the Western-backed administration did.

He calls them “red carpet” events for people who aren’t celebrities, especially in Indian culture, where weddings often span multiple days and require many outfits.
