Update from today North American time [Terrible !] :

"Authorities evict monks from two properties of Athonite Esphigmenou Monastery in Greece

Yesterday, July 23, police officers arrived at the monastery's dependencies in Ierissos on the peninsula of Chalkidiki, near Mt. Athos, and in Nea Roda, 70 miles southeast of Thessaloniki, and forced the monks to leave."

That's awful but that's not the compound. But perhaps they're really going to try to cause destruction this time. Pray, wait, see.
