Palestinian refugees who fled war-torn Syrian to Greece said they have been subjected to racist violations by Greek police and nationals.
A few days ago, a driver shot and injured a Palestinian refugee in his head. Eye-witnesses pointed the finger at the extremist neo-Nazi right-wing group called Golden Dawn, involved in racist violence and hate crimes.
Greece and the European Union should launch immediate fact-finding probes into such crimes and pressurize authorities to take a firm stance in response to race-motivated violence against migrants fleeing war and economic hardship in their countries.
