Two Greek journalists came under attack from supporters of President Hosny Mubarak on Thursday as they covered the protests in Cairo, their employers reported.
Kathimerini print journalist Petros Papaconstantinou was stabbed in the leg and repeatedly hit over the head with batons.
Greek freelance photographer Giorgos Moutafis was also punched in the face by a group of men who stopped him on the
street near Tahrir Square and smashed some of his equipment.
The attacks appear to be carried out with the belief that many international media are sympathetic to protesters who want Mubarak to step down rather than complete his term.
