ATHENS -- A series of attacks by anarchist groups in Greece continued over the weekend as police were targeted on Saturday and Sunday. Around 20 hooded attackers overnight Sunday hurled Molotov cocktails at police guarding the offices of the opposition Socialist Party (Pasok).

Nobody was injured, and the perpetrators disappeared in the narrow streets of Athens city centre.

On Saturday, around 10 hooded motorcyclist had attacked the entrance of a police station in the Pefki suburb with several Molotov cocktails, demolishing four police cars and two motorbikes as well as the building's facade.

Witnesses said the perpetrators had been chanting anarchist slogans in both cases.

Left-leaning groups have repeatedly staged similar attacks in Greece.

Only on January 3, anonymous suspects had destroyed a total of 12 cars in the centre of Athens.
