General Strike In Athens

Demonstrations in Athens, Greece, Oct 19, 2011. On the first day of a 48hr general strike over 100.000 people demonstrated in Syntagma Square and around the Greek Parliament, where more austerity measures were being debated to be voted by the government. Although peaceful at first, protests turned extremely violent with extensive clashes between protesters and riot police, molotov bomb throwing, use of tear and chocking gases and massive vandalisms in shops and buldings around the area.
