A group of refugees who have been waiting for days in Idomeni to enter FYROM so as to continue their journey to northern Europe decided to return to their country.

Seeing that their hopes are fading away day by day, about 500 Afghan refugees took the decision to go back to their country, since they are not able to cross the border and they cannot continue living in tents in Idomeni.

According to information, the people took their few belongings and headed to Thessaloniki and Athens by taxi or bus so as to find a way to return to their country.
