“Take a good look at this map. Crete, Rhodes, Lesvos, Chios, Samos all consumed by Turkey”, the Greek PM tweeted

Ferry services between the Turkish province of Ayvalık in the province of Balıkesir and Greece's Lesbos Island have resumed after two years.

The trial in Mytilene, Lesvos, opened on Thursday of 24 aid workers from Greece and elsewhere accused of complicity in a criminal organization.

A Greek journalist has revealed the sad plight of refugees who set foot on the island of Lesbos, from getting treated inhumanely to being beaten, mugged and pushed back to Turkish borders.

The Moria camp on the Aegean island of Lesvos housed more than 10,000 people before being deliberately destroyed by two fires in September 2020

The incident happened northeast of Lesvos

The European Commissioner for Home Affairs, Ylva Johansson, is on a two-day visit to the Greek islands of Samos and Lesvos, marking the allocation of over a quarter-billion euros of EU funds to the Greek state towards construction of new migrant reception facilities on the Aegean islands.

Direct ferries connecting Thessaloniki Port with most Aegean islands will be launched.

The small islands run a new type of advertising campaign: all residents get vaccinated to attract tourists.

Some part of 459-acre island, known as Kalem Island off the coast of the Aegean province of İzmir's Dikili district, was put up for sale for 400 million Turkish Liras ($54 million).

Located 500 meters from the Turkish mainland and right across the Greek island of Lesbos, Kalem is known as a frequent destination for daily tour boats in the Aegean Sea.

Parents in the village of Ippeio on the Aegean island of Lesvos are protesting the attendance of nine refugee children at the local school.

Friday was supposed to be the second day for the five boys and four girls from Afghanistan and Syria, who live in apartments provided by NGOs.
