In April 2020 the Greek Government began its systematic and brutal pushbacks against refugees.
For a year, due to the pandemic restrictions, their actions went almost unnoticed.
@ABoatReport was trying to reveal what was happening but no one on the ground could do anything.

Turkey's leaders are taking a break from enabling #Russia against #NATO and ethnic cleansing Syria’s #Kurds to launch absurd claims and empty threats against Greek islands. We take a look at the painful history of Turkish rule on one of them: a thread on #Chios from #theHELC 1/10 
The history of the Greeks in Chios goes back more than 3,000 years reaching to #Minoan and #Mycenaean times. Chios is the most likely birthplace of #Homer and had its own coins and democratic parliament by 600 BC. Its famous wine was exported from the Black Sea to #Egypt 2/10
The islanders sided with Athens and then #Alexander the Great against Persia and continued to prosper under first the #Roman and then the Eastern Roman (#Byzantine) Empire. The famous #mosaics of Nea Moni monastery are considered a masterpiece of Byzantine art 3/10
Am 27.11. eröffnen 2 weitere Hochsicherheitslager auf den Inseln #Leros und #Kos, 100% von der #EU-Kommission finanziert & vom griechischen Migrationsministerium umgesetzt. Am Montag kündigte Generalsekretär für Einwanderungspolitik, Patroklos Georgiadis, in Rundschreiben an...
...dass alle Geflüchteten, die von nun an über den Landweg nach #Griechenland einreisen (63% im letzten Jahr), nicht mehr in Athen oder Thessaloniki einen Asylantrag stellen können, sondern auf die Ägäischen Inseln übersetzt werden sollen, in eines der Hochsicherheitslager, (...)
...um dort einen Asylantrag stellen zu können. Wird dies umgesetzt, bedeutet das, dass die Ägäischen Inseln nun auch für Menschen, die zuvor auf dem Festland waren, zu isolierten Pufferzonen vor dem Europäischen Festland werden, in denen sie auf unbestimmte Zeit festsitzen.

The daily #Coronavirus megathread for Tuesday starts early, from Manchester airport.
Because of the early start I missed a few countries from yesterday's thread, first I'll update these #Covid19 totals. Tweets during the day may be delayed due to travel & connectivity issues

Ich finde es ja gut, dass sich viele Menschen auch Gedanken über die Flüchtlinge auf Lesbos machen. Zur Zeit drehen sich die meisten deutschen Tweets zum #Erdbeben um #Moria. Einerseits gut, andererseits auch völlig daneben...

Die Schäden in #Izmir sind verheerend mit vielen eingestürzten Hochhäusern. Eine dreistellige Opferzahl ist wahrscheinlich und viele weitere Verletzte ebenfalls. Dazu die Situation für die vielen Obdachlosen, gerade wegen der #Corona-Pandemie...
An der türkischen Küste südlich von Izmir hat der #Tsunami viele Häuser überschwemmt, die zum Zeil zuvor vom Beben beschädigt wurden. Ob und wie viele Opfer es dort gibt, ist nicht abzusehen...

Happy Greek Easter!
Water means life on planet earth: Empoli, between the villages of Halandra and the so interestingly named village, Aphrodisia. The magic side of mount Amani, Northern Chios.

“The Unseen Sailor” (Αφανής Ναύτης) - this bronze stands near the school I graduated from at Vrontados, north of Chios town. The isle of Oinnousses in the distance.

Two pine trees, no vertigo sufferers, bent by the ferocious, monstrous Pityokamptes*.
On top of Mount Aipos, above Vrontados town. Turkey is seen in the distance.
*Interstingly, there is a village in Chios called Pityos.

Thread 1.| Protests and strikes today in #Lesvos, #Chios, #Samos, #Leros, #Kos against the presence of #hotspots and the plans for new closed reception and detention centers. All the trade associations and local authorities call for the protest. #OpentTheIslands #Refugeesgr
2. The main tone is that the local population is angry with the situation and the negligence of the government. In ##Chios & in Lesvos a lot of people participated in the protests. The officials' speeches were pointing the need to stop the new centers and this inhuman situation
3. The general atmosphere from the published texts seems to be mainly against #refugees, strengthening #racism and #xenophobia, although there are also voices with a #humanitarian approach like the union of Chios Psychiatrists politischios.gr/koinonia/sullo…
