British tourists in Greece are on alert after an anarchist group claimed to have poisoned supermarket groceries with acid.

Pictures posted on social media appear to show anarchists from Black Green Arsonists injecting hydrochloric acid into food and drink products.

Greek shops have been forced to pull meat, milk and Coca-Cola from their shelves amid fears of contamination, according to The Sun.

The anarchist group is reported to have taken the products from supermarkets in the lead-up to Christmas and returned the contaminated goods a few weeks later.

The Greek capital, Athens, as well as the country’s second largest city, Thessaloniki, are believed to have been affected.

Reports suggest that bottles of Coca-Cola and Coca-Cola Light have been affected, along with a meat product called Yfantis and bottles of Delta whole milk.

The anarchist group has previously made threats to poison food supplies but that this is the first time there has been photographic evidence.

They said in a statement: ‘These days, thousands and thousands of Christians will leave their couch to make the necessary shopping for their Christmas tables, to fill their empty lives with consumable rubbish covered in beautiful, glittering wrapping.

‘The victims of this feast are the millions of living creatures that are slaughtered to arrive at the tables of the living, drained to the last drop of blood to satisfy their palates.’
