European Union forces pushed back 160 migrants through Evros River, between Turkey and Greece.
Earlier this year, a report by the Border Violence Monitoring Network (BVMN), with help from its members Mobile Info Team (MIT) and Wave Thessaloniki, provided first-hand testimonies and photographic evidence showing violent collective expulsions of migrants and refugees from Greece.
The migrants were reportedly beaten, robbed and detained before being driven to the border area where military personnel used boats to return them to Turkey across the Evros River.
