Thousands protest after Greek refugee camp burns down
Thousands of protesting refugees and migrants left homeless on the Greek island of Lesbos after fires destroyed the overcrowded Moria camp gathered on a road leading to the island’s main town, demanding to be allowed to leave.
Clapping and chanting songs, the protesters were boisterous but peaceful. Some held up signs pleading for help from Germany, a favoured destination for many migrants and refugees who arrive in Greece from the nearby Turkish coast.
