A protester faces riot police following a march during a 24-hour general strike in central Athens November 27, 2014. Greek labour unions staged a 24-hour strike on Thursday that cancelled hundreds of flights, shut public offices and severely disrupted local transport, in the first major industrial action to cripple the austerity-weary country in months.
