Greeks protest outside Australian ambassadors house over bushfires

·

Members of the anarchist group Rouvikonas, on Saturday morning, scattered flyers outside the home of the Australian Ambassador to Greece Arthur Spyrou in a bid to protest the Australian authorities’ handling of fatal wildfires that have been ravaging the country in recent weeks.

The incident did not result in any vandalism as is frequently the case with stunts by the group.

This act shows the global uproar that has emerged from the Australian governments response to the bushfires.
