Greece: Two recent solidarity attacks

From Culmine via This is Our Job (April 7, 2011):

In the early hours of Sunday, March 27, fire completely destroyed the Halandri offices of Eurocopters, whose subsidiary Aeroservices supplies helicopters to the Greek army and police. As our comrades explained in their lengthy communiqué, after breaking in through the front door, a potent incendiary device was left inside the offices. The action was dedicated to the Fire Cells Conspiracy members arrested on March 14, and the communiqué was signed by the International Revolutionary Front: Deviant Behavior for the Spread of Revolutionary Terrorism (Anarchist Action Cell).

In the early hours of April 1, the following targets were torched in Thessaloniki: the headquarters of the Center for Democracy and Reconciliation in Southeast Europe (an NGO) in the Ano Poli neighborhood, and the local office of the British Hellenic Chamber of Commerce downtown. Apart from it being a capitalist gang, there was another reason to attack the Chamber of Commerce. Its key executive is Rigas Tzelepoglou, who is also the honorary consul for Chile in Thessaloniki. The NGO in question, like most NGOs, has its hands covered in blood and shit due to Greece’s policy toward the Balkans. Plus, there is a surprise: The treasurer of the NGO that was attacked is none other than Mr. Tzelepoglou! The arsons were dedicated to the Chilean comrades on hunger strike, the five recently arrested Fire Cells Conspiracy members, and other prisoners. The communiqué, which can be read in Greek here, was signed by the International Revolutionary Front: Fire to the Borders Solidarity Cell.
