Thousands of Greek workers are holding a 24-hour strike called by trade unions to protest against government plans to cut public sector jobs.

Hospital services, public transport and flights are being affected by the industrial action.

Demonstrations have been building for several days over the latest set of deeply unpopular austerity measures.

MPs plan to pass a bill this week to start receiving 6.8bn euros (£5.8bn) of bailout loans to keep Greece afloat.

There needs to be an indefinite general strike until the system falls.
