Thousands of Greeks joined new anti-austerity protests on February 20, causing massive disruption to flights, ferries and hospital services in the debt-ridden country's first general strike this year. About 15,000 protesters took part in a Communist-organised demonstration in Athens and 20,000 more joined protests organised by other unions, according to police figures.
