Rioting Greek youths threw firebombs at the political headquarters of Prime Minister Andreas Papandreou’s Socialist party in Athens, seriously injuring a policeman. About 50 of the youths were arrested after this and other incidents in which a bank was set afire and shops and cars were damaged. The clashes started when about 300 youths, described by the police as anarchists, staged a demonstration protesting the wounding of one of their colleagues on Monday.
