General Strike day in Athens, anarchist murdered by police

There is an ongoing life-feed from occupiedlondon about situation in greece.

Today, at the 11th of march, another general strike started in greece. Here are some of the pictures:

35 year-old comrade Lambros Foundas was murdered by cops on Wednesday, 10th of march in the morning in the suburb of Dafni (south Athens). The police claims that he was a “terrorist” and that he was shot
while trying to steal a car, and that was carrying firearms. Fountas
was one of the over 500 anarchists arrested at the Polytechnic riots of
1995, in Athens.

In Thessaloniki today’s demonstration is reported much
larger than last general strike. A first report on IMC claims 6-7,000
demonstrators; two chain supermarkets and one large confiserie were
looted. One CCTV camera was smashed; riot cops tear-gassed the
demonstration at that point, but the demonstrators remained calm. Also,
during the demo, many ATMs, a fast-food chain store, vodafone, and a
church’s store were smashed.
