A C-130 aircraft is on standby at the Elefsina airbase, ready to be deployed to transport injured PAOK fans from Romania to Greece, if requested by the authorities. The Romanian Minister of Health is in constant contact with his Greek counterpart following the tragic traffic accident in Timiş County, where seven Greek citizens lost their lives and three were injured. The injured, aged 20, 20 and 28, have suffered multiple traumas, but their condition is stable. Medical teams are closely monitoring their condition. The accident involved a minibus carrying PAOK fans to France for the match against Olympique Lyonnais.
