On October 15, 2025, Greek riot police clashed with doctors and nurses at Athens’ University General Hospital Attikon during a protest over poor working conditions, staff shortages, and low pay, coinciding with Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis’ visit to inaugurate a new oncology wing.
Protesters cited overcrowding, with patients on stretchers, and demanded 125 more nurses, criticizing frozen salaries and 10,000 days of unpaid leave.
Police used pepper spray and batons to disperse demonstrators.
