Greece 14/12

Athens

A protest has taken place (18:00-20:00) at the point where the 15 year old was murdered in Exarhia, that was arranged by the Assembly of Residents of Exarhia. There was a planned demo at 20:00 at Petroupoli for which I don't have any info at the moment (23:00). Today there were reported three occupations of Athenian radio stations for short time periods, Best Fm, En Lefko and Athina 9,84 (the radio of the municipality of Athens), situated in Maroussi, Neo Psihiko and Gkazi respectively. The occupations of the old townhall of Halndri and and the townhall of Agios Dimitrios continue. The three occupations of universities in the centre of Athens (Athens Polytechnic, ASOEE and University of Law, links to their blogs) continue to work as nuclei of alternative awareness of the public

Thessaloniki

There was a planned a "motor driven" demo (with bikes, motorbikes and cars) at 13:00. It started from the School of Theatre, which is also under occupation these days and central to the protests. The demonstration passed mainly by the west parts of the city (Neapoli, Polihni, Stavroupoli, Evosmo, Eptalofo, Ksirokrini).
