Greeks rally against fascist group
‘Thousands of demonstrators have taken to the streets in the Greek capital, Athens, to mark the third anniversary of the death of an anti-fascist activist.
Carrying banners and placards, demonstrators marched in Athens’s Keratsini district on Saturday to protest against Greece’s far-right Golden Dawn party, which is accused of having been involved in the 2013 murder of Pavlos Fyssas, a 34-year-old anti-fascism musician.
