In Athens, student protesters declare support for Palestinian resistance

On May 14, 2024, students at the University of Athens launched an occupation in support of Palestinians at the University's Law School. Greek police swiftly descended upon the occupiers and arrested 27 students, but not before they scrawled messages of support for Palestinian resistance all over the walls of the facility.

On the following day, which was Nakba Day, thousands of protesters marched from central Athens to the Israeli Embassy. Some of the protesters briefly clashed with police who had cordoned off the Embassy.

On May 16, Dimitri Lascaris reported on these developments from outside Israel's Embassy in Athens. Lascaris also discussed the state of the resistance in West Asia, and the reasons for which he decided to tour the region in a time of Israeli genocide.
