Clashes took place again this morning in north-eastern Halkidki where
residents are protesting against logging activities by mining company

According to the antigoldgreece blog, these new developments come ahead of a planned meeting tomorrow morning between the Residents' Committees Against Mining and the leadership of the regional police to examine the validity of operational permits held by the mining company for logging activities in the Karatzas area.
