Thirty people - 29 men and one woman - were injured during clashes that occurred in central Athens on Wednesday, during a massive demonstration held to protest against a new round of fiscal austerity measures and higher taxes planned by the government.
The injured were taken to Erythros Stavros hospital and eight were immediately released after receiving first aid. According to a health ministry press release, those that remained in hospital were suffering from respiratory problems or injuries from slight blows and were not at risk.
