TOPSHOTS
TOPSHOTS Migrants sleep in a park in central Athens, where they found a temporary shelter after arriving from Greek islands on July 25, 2015. Greece received more boat arrivals than any other European country in the first half of 2015, with about 101,000 migrants arriving on Greek shores between 1 January and 17 July, according to the UNHCR, the UN refugee agency. More than 31,000 migrants arrived in Greece by boat in June alone, the data showed. Given the deep economic crisis that Greece is facing, it cannot be assumed that Greece can cope with this alone. The EU and its member states should urgently deploy humanitarian resources such as emergency funding and material assistance to support Greece in responding to the basic needs of newly arrived migrants and asylum seekers, says Stathis Kyroussis, MSF's Head of Mission in Greece.
