Microsoft headquarters in Greece attacked

The two security guards were giving testimony to police.

The assailants then triggered an incendiary device inside the van that police
said appeared to have consisted of camping gas canisters and several
containers of gasoline.

Police forensic teams examined the burned-out van, which was still outside the
blackened entrance later Monday morning.

Although they have faded over the past year, attacks had spiked following the
fatal police shooting of a teenager in Athens in December 2008 that led to
widespread riots across the country.

One group that had appeared in the aftermath of the rioting had set itself
apart by claiming responsibility for shooting dead an anti-terrorism police
officer in central Athens in 2009 and a journalist in 2010.
