Germany's consulate on the Greek island of Crete was briefly occupied Friday by protesters decrying Turkey's offensive in the Syrian enclave of Afrin, police said. "A group of persons entered the consulate, took down frames from the walls and put up banners. Then they left," a police spokesperson said.
A banner reading "Resistance is life, solidarity to Afrin" was pictured hanging from the balcony of the consulate in Iraklio, Crete. The spokesperson declined to comment on reports that the protesters also damaged equipment in the consulate, and made away with the German flag. There were no arrests and no injuries were reported.
