Migrants Complain of Skin Infections on Greek Island

Activists have warned of the spread of skin diseases and scabies among migrants taking shelter in Kara Tepe camp, located about 2.5 km to the north of Mytilene, the capital of the island of Lesbos.

Greek authorities have reportedly prevented activists from publishing live photos from the camp.

Palestinian refugees and other migrants have been subjected to a dire humanitarian situation in migrant camps and other substandard facilities set up in Greece, most of them vastly overcrowded, unhygienic and violence-prone.

Over recent months, Greece’s refugee camps have been running at four or five times their capacities, with tens of thousands of migrants crammed into poorly-equipped tents.

Palestinian refugees from Syria continue to risk their lives onboard the “death boats” to Greece. Activists estimate that around 4,000 Palestinian refugees from Syria are taking shelter on Greek islands.
