Trois personnes ont péri dans l'incendie criminel d'une agence bancaire mercredi à Athènes, lors de manifestations contre le plan d'austérité.

Lors de cette journée de grève générale, la troisième depuis le début de l'année, des dizaines de milliers de manifestants ont défilé dans la capitale grecque où de violents affrontements ont opposé des groupes de protestataires aux forces de l'ordre, qui ont tiré des grenades lacrymogènes.
