The Noose

1987 0 min 7.0

Overview

In the fall of 1948, shortly before the end of the civil war in Greece, six young leftists traveled to Athens, boarded a plane to Thessaloniki, and forced the pilot to fly them to neighboring Yugoslavia, where they would seek political asylum along with other comrades. Their plan went off without a hitch and went down in history as the first hijacking ever.
