Almost 1,200 migrants - some crammed onto overcrowded inflatable dinghies - have been picked up by Greek authorities in the eastern Aegean Sea in the past two days. On the holiday island of Kos, some new arrivals are staying in a deserted hotel. After Italy, financially crippled Greece is the main destination for refugees, mostly from war-ravaged Syria plus economic migrants seeking a better life in the EU. About 30,000 have already arrived this year. read more

The EU´s plan to deploy military force against people traffickers at Libya´s coast is leaking in many places.

Five African migrants drowned on Monday after jumping into the Mediterranean as Egyptian coastguards raided a boat heading towards Italy, security officials said. Twenty-five people, including the owner and crew of the vessel, were arrested after the raid on the boat near the city of Kafr al-Sheikh. The nationalities of the dead have not yet been confirmed, the officials said. The incident comes two days after the bodies of five Tunisian migrants trying to reach the Italian island of Lampedusa were recovered from the sea, while 49 others were rescued off the coast of Tunisia. Deadly shipwrecks in recent months in the Mediterranean have failed to deter many migrants, including Syrian refugees, from risking the sea voyage to Europe. read more

Hundreds of migrants, captured during their attempt to cross to Europe, are held in Libya's detention centers. They are locked in large and unclean cells, each with as many as 100 people, without enough space to lay down at night.
