Newsroom March 8 02:57

In full operation was the gas station which was bombed in the early hours of Friday morning.

In fact, according to reports, there were employees inside, with no injuries reported.

At the same time, investigations by the authorities are in full swing in order to identify any clues that could lead the authorities to the traces of the perpetrators who on Friday morning placed an explosive device in a petrol station in Piraeus.

It was a large and central petrol station belonging to a well-known company.

According to reports, despite the fact that a man appears to be the owner of the petrol station, the actual control, according to police sources, was in the hands of a man from the nightlife who had recently been murdered after an ambush, also at a petrol station owned by him.

The powerful explosion occurred at 3:20 a.m. Friday morning.

The petrol station is located at Omiridou Skylitsis in Piraeus.

The explosion was so powerful that it was heard as far away as Paleo Faliro.
