Massacre in Crete/ Two people are reported wanted, police cordon off the area

A serious incident has shaken Crete with a massacre caused by a conflict between two families in Heraklion. According to reports, the exchange of fire between members of the two families has resulted in casualties and dozens of injuries.

Greek media also report that two people are wanted in connection with the incident, and the police who have surrounded the village are working to capture them.

It is also reported that in addition to the heads of the Greek Police and the Greek FBI who are descending on the island, a team from the Special Anti-Terrorist Team (EKAM) will also arrive in Crete, which will be permanently stationed in the village to maintain order there.

According to initial reports, it all started after a bomb exploded in a house in Heraklion on Friday evening.
