Grenades Wound 18 in Greece
From Reuters
ATHENS —
An attacker hurled two hand grenades into a Greek hotel today, injuring 18 British tourists, including a dozen who are deaf and mute.
A woman telephoned a Greek newspaper and said that unless a Palestinian arrested here was released, the guerrilla group Black September would fill Athens with bombs. Police said they believed the call and the blast were linked. Today’s attack took place at the swimming pool at the Glyfada Hotel near Athens and shattered windows in the dining room.
