Two European officials paid separate visits to Greek hotspots during this week, including the migrants' reception and identification facility of Moria at the island of Lesvos.

The mayor of Lesvos asked for the transfer of a large number of refugees and migrants from the island to mainland Greece, warning that conditions in the centers are “particularly worrying and dangerous”, in an urgent letter to the Alternate Minister for Migration Policy Yiannis Mouzalas on Tuesday.
