The woman was killed early on Saturday in the northern Greek city of Thessaloniki, when the bomb exploded in the hands of the bomb, the police said.
A 38 -year -old woman apparently carried a bomb to place around a nearby bank around 5:00, the police said.
Several interpretations and vehicles were damaged by the explosion.
The police said that a woman who was not publicly identified had a criminal record related to drugs and prostitution and in the past was involved in at least one robbery and theft.
The Greek police division for organized crime was investigating the incident, while the authorities also investigated whether a woman could have ties to extreme left -wing groups.
Greece has seen occasional bomb attacks, as well as targeted killing, attributed to different groups of organized crime. The country also has a long history of politically motivated violence dating back to the age of 70, while domestic extremist groups perform a small scale bomb, which usually cause some damage, but rarely lead to injuries.
While the most active groups in the 80s and 90s, whose preferred goals were the tendency to be politicians, foreign companies and diplomats, were dismantled, new small groups appeared.
Last year, a man who thought he was trying to build a bomb when the device he had developed in the Central Athens apartment exploded. The woman inside the apartment was seriously injured. It was not clear what their intended goal could be.
The explosion was forced by the Minister of Citizens’ Protection Michalis Chrisochoidis to warn of a new new generation of domestic extremists.
In April, a new group, which was called a revolutionary class struggle, required responsibility for a bomb that exploded in the central Athens near the Hellenic train offices, the main operator of Greece and the planting of another bomb near the Ministry in early February.
The explosion near the train office led to reduce the building damage and without injury. It was preceded by an anonymous call to the local media 40 minutes before warning about the explosion of the device, which led to the police to evacuate and Cordon from the area.
The group that claimed responsibility said the bombing is part of the armed struggle against the state.
The bombing in the train offices came shortly after the second anniversary of the worst railway disaster, in which 57 people and dozens of more injured were killed when a freight train and a passenger train were placed on the same track.
The deadly accident caused extensive anger and revealed serious shortcomings in the railway system of Greece, including safety systems. Some of the relatives of the victims led mass protests against the conservative government of the country on the occasion of the second anniversary of the accident.
