Violence breaks out at Greece Demo

Hundreds of youths pelted riot police with fire bombs, bottles and chunks of marble today as another Greek anti-austerity demonstration descended into violence, less than a month after more intense clashes broke out during a similar protest.

Authorities said around 70,000 protesters took to the street in two separate demonstrations in Athens during the country’s second general strike in a month as workers across the country walked off the job to protest against new austerity measures the government is negotiating with Greece’s international creditors.
