A violent fight and shooting occurred at a well-known beach bar on the Greek island of Halkidiki in the early hours of Saturday. Three Bulgarians were reported injured.
According to Greek media, one of the men received a serious gunshot wound to the chest, while the others got stabbed or sustained injuries from physical assault. The injured were taken to a health center and later transferred to a hospital. According to doctors, the man who was shot is in an extremely critical condition. There is speculation that individuals involved in the incident may be connected to the Bulgarian mafia.
BNR's correspondent in Greece Katya Peeva reported that according to eyewitnesses, five Bulgarians got into an argument with the bar owner and beat him up. Subsequently, someone shot and wounded one of the Bulgarians. All five Bulgarians have been arrested.
