Greek police have caught a group of migrants from Syria attempting to fool migration control by posing as a volleyball team from Ukraine.

A report by Doctors Without Borders, or MSF, said many refugees, exhausted and often soaked from the sea-crossing, spend days sleeping outdoors or squashed in tiny police cells before being moved to the mainland.

More than 200 Syrian refugees that have sought solace in Athens, began a hunger strike outside of the Greek Parliament this week.
