Police in Athens, Greece, reportedly protected Israeli tourists on Tuesday, after pro-Hamas demonstrators made up of Muslim migrants and far-leftists attempted to breach the hotel the tourists were staying at.
Greece has witnessed multiple pro-Palestine protests since the start of the Oct. 7 war between Israel and Hamas, including one protest march that featured 10,000 participants walking together to the Israeli embassy in October. Pro-Hamas protests have also erupted in other countries, including at college campuses in the United States.
The police officers on Tuesday were dispatched to the hotel to break up the violent mob, according to the Foreign Desk, and officers allegedly used unknown crowd control devices to control the crowd.
