It seems that the bad weather is the only factor that could reduce the flow of migrants and refugees, as municipal councilor of Kastelorizo stated on Suνday.

“There were no new arrivals yesterday and today due to the bad weather,” he said.

Moreover, the hotspots in Lesvos and Chios island, although they are operating with no problems, as authorities claim, are already crowded since the refugee flow has been increased, with more than 3,000 refugees and migrants reaching Lesvos in the past two days.
