A 24-year-old woman died on Friday afternoon after falling from the balcony of a seventh-floor apartment building in the Kallipoli district of Piraeus, authorities said.

First responders rushed to the scene on Kallirois Street, where the woman was found severely injured before being transported to a nearby hospital.

Police have launched an investigation into the circumstances surrounding the incident, while early indications point to a possible suicide.

The incident comes amid heightened public concern and shock in Greece following two separate cases reported this week involving young women who died after jumping from buildings in Athens-area districts, incidents that renewed debate over mental health support and suicide prevention services in the country.
