## Caption

On 21 October 1966, Aberfan was struck by a catastrophic coal-waste landslide that engulfed Pantglas Junior School. 🖤 The tragedy claimed 144 lives, including 116 children, and exposed ignored warnings and institutional failure. A heartbreaking chapter in Welsh history—and a lasting lesson in accountability. 🏴
