Unionized workers to demonstrate in Thessaloniki, Greece, 19:30 Aug. 10. Heightened security, transport disruptions likely.
Event
Unionized workers associated with the All-Workers Militant Front (PAME) plan to protest at the intersection of Tsimiski and Aristotelous streets in Thessaloniki at 19:30 on Aug. 10.
