Greek
police on Monday (October 3) fired teargas to control a demonstration
of pensioners protesting over cutbacks to their benefits, part of an
austerity drive requested by international lenders.
About 1,500 pensioners attempted to march to Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras' office. Riot police blocked their path.
Tensions flared when dozens of pensioners attempted to push over a police bus blocking their way a few hundred metres (yards) from Tsipras' office.
