The building of Greece’s Kathimerini newspaper, as well as SKAI television and radio stations, was attacked by unknown individuals in the early hours of Saturday in southern Athens.

Beleaguered incumbent Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras on Tuesday sat for questions in the studio of his harshest media critic, Athens-based Skai TV, personally overturning an “embargo” against the outlet by his government and ruling SYRIZA party, days before a general election where forecasts show him losing.

The outgoing government and up-to-now ruling SYRIZA party's "embargo" against Athens-based Skai broadcaster - one of the most acerbic media critics of the former - was unceremoniously scrapped over the weekend, as incumbent prime minister Alexis Tsipras himself announced that he'll appear on the station's live prime-time newscast on Tuesday.
