Athens. According to one of the hostages in the hijacked bus, whom a Greek media managed to connect to via phone, terrorists have a bag, full of grenades, AFP reported.
As AFP announced earlier, three armed men have hijacked an intercity bus travelling from the city of Marathon to Athens. The bus driver, who managed to escape, has said for a Greek radio station that there were three hijackers involved, and two of them are armed. Police believes that hijackers are Albanians.
A large security perimeter has been established around the hijacked intercity bus in Athens, Greece. The area is closed by police with ambulances standing by. According to the driver, hijackers have opened fire at the police but the information hasn’t been confirmed.
RIA Novosti announced one of the terrorists said he is Russian and his name is Hassan.

So far everything is sounding typical for a chechen situation.
The only things missing are mining the outside of the building or trapping the place, which could have been done in some way that we don't know yet, and some sort of outside contact to horrify the police, like a video of raping young girls, for instance. Since they don't seem to have video capabilities, I am wondering if they will be doing an execution soon and making a very public display of it.
