Fresh clashes erupted between police and migrants on the Greek island of Lesbos on Monday night, which authorities said was “on the verge of explosion”.
A dozen or so coastguards and riot police armed with batons struggled to control some 2,500 migrants on Lesbos, screaming “Keep back” at the crowds as they surged towards a government-chartered ship bound for Athens.
Europe’s borders are near breaking point as authorities struggle to cope with influx of people fleeing war and poverty in the Middle East and Africa, with thousands making their way across the Balkans and the Mediterranean every day.
