ATHENS, Greece - Greek authorities are using military trucks and commandeered fuel trucks to restore fuel supplies cut by a strike that has hurt the country's industry and tourism at the height of vacation season.
Military vehicles are supplying fuel to airports, hospitals and power stations, Greek authorities confirm. Escorted by police, fuel trucks and company trucks have been replenishing gas stations. Associated Press reporters have seen police escorting them in and out of refineries and through highway toll stations where striking truck drivers have been trying to disrupt the flow of supplies.
Strikers attacked a couple of vehicles but there were no wider confrontations.
