A small boat crammed with two dozen migrants sputtered in the Mediterranean Sea as the motor cut out. It sat helplessly for an hour-and-a-half until, amid nightfall, a voice called out for help when another ship came close. That voice belonged to Syrian journalist Aliaa Hwijah was voyaging on the boat from Turkey in hopes of seeking asylum in Europe. Greek sailors found the idled vessel. "Hello! We need some help here!" Hwijah said in English in a video of the rescue obtained by NBC News' British partner, ITV News. The Greek coast guard told the stranded migrants to stay on board. Help was on its way. read more

Greece and Norway have agreed to use funding from the European Economic Area and Norway Grants to establish a new reception center on the island of Lesvos. Through the EEA and Norway Grants, Norway will use 1.6 million euros to fund the day-to-day operation of the reception center on the island of Lesvos for a one-year period.

On Tuesday hundreds of migrants were kicked out of their makeshift homes in Paris, France. In France in particular, where political parties are collectively moving towards the right, many people are fearful that the influx of migrants will overwhelm the country. It’s understandable that locals are concerned about the growing number of migrants entering their cities. What’s not understandable is shutting the doors on vulnerable people in need of help. read more

The European Union (EU) has responded to the Mediterranean migrant crisis by criminalising migration and proposing a military solution to stop people dying at sea. Europe has legitimised this fateful policy by equating human smugglers with traffickers in people, a deliberate tactic on behalf of policy makers to govern migration as though it were a criminal act. read more

The number of holidaymakers enquiring about visiting the Greek island of Kos has dropped by more than 50 per cent since the migrant crisis hit the headlines, a new study suggests.

Pictures show the desperate migrants, including women with young children, sleeping rough in makeshift refugee camp and loitering in the streets as they await papers to travel elsewhere in the European Union. Some holidaymakers went as far as branding the migrant problem on the island as 'awkward' and 'a nightmare.' read more
