Explosives were found on Monday buried in a courtyard of a stately residence in Athens’ upscale Paleo Psyhiko district, which up until four years ago housed the embassy of Iraq in Greece.
The discovery was made by construction company workers during renovation works underway at the vacant building.
Police said in a statement Tuesday that a disarmed hand grenade, 450 grams (16 ounces) of TNT and 15 sticks of dynamite were found in the garden of the three-story building in an upscale suburb of the Greek capital.
