An arson attack targeted the residence of a deputy mayor of Zografou on Monday night. According to witnesses, two young individuals arrived at the scene on Louloudi Street shortly after 22:15.

The blaze completely destroyed the deputy mayor's car and damaged two motorcycles and three external air conditioning units. The fire also caused smoke damage to the entrance and facade of the apartment building. Five fire engines and 15 firefighters were deployed to extinguish the flames.

Police have recovered a gasoline container and a plastic bottle near the site, reinforcing the assessment that this was a deliberate attack. The deputy mayor stated on social media that the perpetrators left traces that will facilitate their identification, and an investigation is underway to determine the motives and whether the official was the sole target.
