We are not forgetting Christodoulos Karathanasis, Panagiotis Vlachakos and Ektoras Gialopsos. They fell for their country in Imia 29 years ago.

Δεν ξεχνάμε τον Χριστόδουλο Καραθανάση, τον Παναγιώτη Βλαχάκο και τον Έκτορα Γιαλοψό. Έπεσαν υπέρ πατρίδος στα Ίμια, πριν από 29 χρόνια. pic.twitter.com/Ai5q6xi0uS
