The Communist Party of Greece (KKE) reports that on Saturday, February 15, the Labour Centre of the city of Lavrio in eastern Attica, whose executive board is run by communists, blocked the transport of 350 tonnes of TNT explosives, which would have passed through the city centre without any measures to protect the people of the area.
According to the KKE "The explosives were in fact destined for the Hellenic Defence Systems factory for the production of 155 mm artillery shells to be sent to the imperialist war in Ukraine as part of our country’s involvement, under the responsibility of the government, in support of the Zelenskiy regime.
The dangerous transfer of the cargo, which was prevented by the decisive intervention of the trade unionists and the cadres of the KKE, proves once again the indifference of the bourgeois state and its governments towards the life of the people and the dangers of the country’s involvement in the imperialist wars."
