Greece saw a day of overlapping political dramas. In Thessaloniki, hundreds gathered outside Ippokrateio Hospital under the banner “We are not afraid of you,” protesting a wave of arson attacks targeting members of the ruling New Democracy party. Anti-terrorism investigators are reportedly pursuing leads including video footage and a motorcycle linked to the perpetrators.
On the polling front, a Metron Analysis survey for MEGA showed New Democracy holding the lead at 25%, with Alexis Tsipras’s EL.A.S. consolidating second place at 14.1% — widening the gap with PASOK, which trailed at 9.4%.
