Greek lawmakers approved a crucial austerity bill Thursday needed to tap 110 billion ($140 billion) in bailout loans from other eurozone countries and the International Monetary Fund, as massive crowds gathered outside parliament to protest the measures. The bill passed with 172 votes in favor and 121 against. Greeks have been outraged by the government's proposed fiscal measures, and demonstrations turned violent on Wednesday during a nationwide general strike, leaving three people dead after becoming trapped in a burning bank torched by demonstrators.
