Six Palestinian migrants were caught by the Turkish coast guard on Wednesday, July 17, off Bodrum coast, as they attempted to illegally enter Greece.
Activists said six refugees, including four members of the same family, have been detained in Izmir, adding that they could not reach out to the migrants as the Turkish police took away their mobile phones.
The activists appealed to the concerned authorities to release them, saying the refugees fled war-torn Syria in the hunt for safe shelters and secure livelihoods to feed their starved families.
