Tension in Keratea over planned landfill

Tension continued in Keratea, eastern Attica, on Tuesday after residents protesting the construction of a landfill in their district emptied several truckloads of rubble on all the roads leading to Lavrion throughout the night. 
 
The only access open for vehicles is the Athens-Sounion coastal road. 
 
Incidents broke out at dawn when a municipal plow truck attempted to remove the rubble. 
 
Protestors attacked and burned the plow truck, while they also scuffled with police.
