Greece's overcrowded migrant camp on Lesbos hit by more deliberate fires


Migrants flee from the Moria refugee camp during a fire Wednesday night on the northeastern Aegean island of Lesbos, Greece. Discontent over COVID-19 quarantine measures may have sparked discontent leading to deliberate fires being set, authorities said. Apart from the main camp, Moria also consisted of a sprawling tent city that had sprung up in olive groves outside the main perimeter fence due to overcrowding. Moria has long been considered a sad and embarrassing symbol of European migration policy failures. Refugees and migrants carrying their belongings flee a fire burning at the Moria camp on the island of Lesbos late Wednesday.
