say about 50 people threw eggs and plastic bottles of water at about
400 people holding a gay pride parade in the northern Greek city of
Thessaloniki. Police moved in to restrict the attackers on Saturday, but
no injuries were reported. In recent days, Anthimos, the senior Greek
Orthodox cleric in Thessaloniki, had publicly criticized the planned gay
pride parade. Anthimos, who only uses one name, is known for outspoken
speeches on social and political issues.
