Bomb disposal experts defuse an explosive package at Greek Embassy in Rome

Bomb disposal experts defused an explosive package at the Greek Embassy in Rome on Monday, days after parcel bomb attacks injuring two people at the Swiss and Chilean Missions. Police said the bomb at the Greek embassy resembled those which exploded in Rome last week, injuring an employee at the Chilean Embassy and also hurting a Swiss Embassy staff member. Authorities were on high alert following last week's attacks and there were several false alarms as mailroom staff coming back from the Christmas break worked through the post.Last week, an Italian anarchist group called the Informal Anarchist Federation (FAI) claimed responsibility for the parcel bombs at the Swiss and Chilean embassies.
