Greek Police Discover Terrorist Hideout; Group Linked to Rocket Attack on U.S. Embassy

Greek police today (April 19, 2010) uncovered the hideout of members of a terrorist group linked to a rocket attack on the U.S. embassy in Athens three years ago, the Earth Times website reports.

Greek prosecutors have already charged six people for participating in the nation's most active terrorist organization -- Revolutionary Struggle.

The five men and one woman have also been charged with arms offenses, carrying out explosions, and attempted homicide, and face up to 25 years in prison if found guilty.

During the raids in the central Athens suburb of Kypseli, police found eight rocket launchers -- similar to the ones used in the attack against the U.S. embassy -- and dozens of Kalashnikovs and MP5 submachine guns.
