A violent invasion by masked individuals occurred shortly before 8 p.m. at the Law School of Athens during an event organized by DAP. The masked assailants stormed the venue wearing hoods and helmets, attacking attendees unprovoked. A doctoral student was seriously injured and transported to the Erythros hospital. The student was struck with a fire extinguisher and is expected to undergo surgery.

According to Professor Yannis Saridakis from the Department of Turkish and Asian Studies, the masked individuals severely injured the doctoral student, who was accompanied to Erythros by the Dean of the School of Economics and Political Sciences, Mr. N. Heriotis.

Police are currently taking statements from witnesses. Initial reports indicate that the intruders violently attacked the attendees, with the injured student trying to prevent them, but they assaulted him relentlessly, using a fire extinguisher as well.
