TEHRAN, December 09 - Hundreds of demonstrators have hit the streets of Greece on the 10th anniversary of a teenager being fatally shot by an officer. Police deployed tear gas after some protesters threw stones and Molotov cocktails at officers.

TEHRAN, Young Journalists Club (YJC) - Around 1,700 people marched in a protest in Athens, according to AP. Although most of the demonstrators were peaceful, some youths set fire to trash in the streets and set up barricades in the Exarchia district – the same area where 15-year-old Alexis Grigoropoulos was shot dead in 2008.
