Announcement of MdM-Greece concerning the situation in Lesvos
The refugee crisis has transformed into a humanitarian crisis on Lesvos, where more than 1,000 unaccompanied children are residing. At the same time, traffickers are constantly looking for new ports in the Aegean, while the absence of a united European policy regarding the reception of the refugees is producing charred and drowned bodies.
The shipwreck of a boat on Oinousses claimed the lives of seven people: five toddlers, one of them an infant, and two women.
