The UN refugee agency says it will struggle to provide basic supplies to a wave of refugees in the Greek islands if the country’s banking system fails in the coming days.
Greece’s islands have in recent weeks overtaken Italy as the primary entry point for refugees to Europe, with nearly 80,000 arriving this year from Turkey – a rate six times the equivalent figure from 2014, according to the UN.
More than 9,000 have arrived in the past week alone, and a UN spokeswoman on the island of Lesbos, which has taken in around half of the arrivals, says the organisation’s ability to give them items as basic as bottles of water and sleeping mats is at risk.

Now the so-called refugees will have two reasons for trying to illegally enter the UK: persecution in their own country and landing in Greece. Send them back in the boats they landed in.
