Euronews spoke to refugee families who are living in extremely poor conditions in Moria, the largest camp on the island of Lesbos.

More than 9,000 people live in the Moria camp — three times its official capacity.

One of Europe's largest migrant camps is overcrowded and lacks basic hygiene and sanitation practises. It's grown so large, refugees are pitching tents outside the camp boundaries. Crime is so rife MSF has called for minors to be removed. This is Moria Refugee Camp.

The rally commemorates the 5th anniversary of the death of Pavlos Fyssas, a Greek anti-fascist rapper who was murdered in 2013 by a member of the far-right political party Golden Dawn.

The Greek island of Lesbos has been hosting thousands of migrants since the crisis in 2015. But now, many of these refugee camps are facing dire conditions - overcapacity, lack of facilities and a less hospitable tone from locals.

Tsipras told Euronews that the Italian government displayed a conflicting attitude when it came to its treatment of migrant boats in the Mediterranian.

Five migrants drowned and 193 were rescued in the western Mediterranean sea off the Spanish coast, the Spanish coastguard said on Thursday, after six rafts sank.

A protest was held in Athens to bring attention to the increasingly hostile treatment of migrants by some EU countries

Italy's Deputy Prime Minister Luigi Di Maio says his country could refuse to pay EU contributions if Brussels does not change it's attitude on the migrant issue

The fate of the remaining 148 asylum seekers is still uncertain. Prosecutors say “they require urgent medical assistance.... the situation onboard is critical.”
