The fountain of Omonia Square and the building of Technopolis in Athens were illuminated in the colours of the Ukrainian flag on Friday night in solidarity with the country being attacked by Russia.

"Omonia and Technopolis are symbolically illuminated with the national colours of Ukraine," the mayor continued.

Bakoyannis concluded by saying "Athens, faithful to its history and tradition, supports Kiev, Mariupol, small and large cities, and the friendly Ukrainian people."
