On Saturday afternoon immigrants held in the detention center of Fylakio, Evros, set fire to mattresses. Border police forced the inmates out of the building, where they were
guarded by riot police units, while fire brigade that arrived from the
city of Orestiada managed to put out the fire.
One immigrant was transferred by ambulance to the Medical Center of Orestiada.
Only recently the Doctors Without Borders (MSF) denounced that for almost a month, there has been no medical care to immigrants and asylum seekers in detention in Evros region.
Meanwhile, greek navy and coast police keep searching for survivors from early Saturday shipwreck near the island of Kefalonia. Unfortunately the number of dead will probably rise to 19.
