[01] Tempi section recloses

The Tempi section of the country's main north-south highway has been closed to traffic since December 17, 2009 following a massive landslide, which claimed the life of an Italian engineer who was project director of a bridge being constructed at the site while arriving to inspect damage caused by falling rocks.

The section was reopened briefly to facilitate Easter holidaymakers after most of the repairs had been completed.

Traffic will be diverted to alternative routes.

[02] Evidence on terrorist group

The counter-terrorism squad conducted searches in several houses in Athens in the last few hours, including a house in the western Athens district of Nea Philadelphia which was considered very important, but no weaponry or explosives were found.
