Following excerpt from capitalist scum media:
Violent clashes erupted between hooded youths and police forces in Thessaloniki after a massive anti-system rap concert by artist Lex, attended by more than 40,000 people — one of the largest rap events ever held in Greece.
In the early hours of Sunday, November 2, hundreds of young people with covered faces moved against MAT riot police units, launching a barrage of Molotov cocktails. Police responded with an extensive use of tear gas, turning the area into an asphyxiating battlefield, several cars caught fire amid running clashes through the city streets.
According to the authorities, 18 people were detained, but only one was arrested on drug-related charges. The arrests followed the violent incidents that erupted shortly after midnight, at the conclusion of Lex’s concert.
The events in Thessaloniki highlight growing social tensions and the risk that large cultural gatherings may turn into flashpoints for clashes.
