Three houses where dozens of refugees were staying in Thessaloniki have been vacated by order of the government of Tsipras , according to reports from support collectives on the scene.
One building, a former orphanage, is being demolished. As they explained to La Marea, 32 refugees have been transferred to other “unspecified” camps and there have been around fifty arrests.
In protest, support groups, refugees have occupied the headquarters of Syriza: “In quick response to government action to evict the squatters for refugees, have occupied the headquarters of Syriza in Thessaloniki, demanding the release of our colleagues and halt the demolition of Orfanotrofio, because within it has been a lot of material necessary for the daily life of refugees (clothing, food, medicines …) “they say.
Their intention was to stay in the party headquarters of the Greek Prime Minister till their demands were met. And they go for the second day. There were also pickets outside the courts and other public spaces in Athens and Lariza were occupied .

Protestas en Grecia por el desalojo de tres casas de refugiados
Según explican a La Marea colectivos de apoyo a los refugiados, una treintena de personas son trasladadas a otros campamentos “sin especificar” y se han practicado unas 50 detenciones.
Como protesta, los grupos de apoyo a los refugiados han ocupado la sede de Syriza: “En rápida respuesta a la actuación del Gobierno de desalojar las okupaciones para refugiados, hemos ocupado la sede de Syriza en Salónica, pidiendo la liberación de nuestros compañeros y la paralización de la demolición de Orfanotrofio, ya que dentro se ha quedado mucho material necesario para el día a día de los refugiados (ropa, comida, medicamentos…)”, aseguran.
Su intención es permanecer en la sede del partido del primer ministro griego hasta que cumpla con sus reivindicaciones. Ya van por el segundo día. Este jueves, además, se están produciendo concentraciones en la puerta de los juzgados y han sido ocupados otros espacios públicos en Atenas y Lariza.
