Greek Migrants Flee Burning Camp - Mila Fisher

Migrants were evacuated from Moria, a refugee camp on Lesbos, a Greek island. Around 4000 were evacuated, and luckily no injuries were reported. Now some migrants are being allowed to return to the camp, even though the fire destroyed 30% of the camp, so many lost their shelter.

The officials investigating the fire believe that it was deliberately started, but an aid worker said it started after a food dispute. A brawl broke out on Monday, the cause being a rumor stating that refugees were going to deported to Turkey as a group. Many voiced that they were afraid to return to Turkey and their homeland.

The situation on Lesbos continues to get worse as more migrants arrive and wait for their asylum claim to be processed. Only some are granted asylum and get to travel to the Greek mainland, while others are turned away.

This is a situation that could be assuaged by more aid and help from organizations and countries. 

These kind of crisises are created by war and battle, and to truly solve these type of problems is peace. Each small step can count as big one, if people care and truly try.
