A day or two ago We witnessed a storm when the camp was largely empty. Today refugees flooded in with the rain. Everyone, everywhere was drenched. Everything we hand out is given to us either in kind or by donation. We spent donations on buying ponchos and other waterproofs but the numbers were so great we couldn't keep everyone dry.
Our job is to provide clothing to replace that which became wet on the boat crossing from Syria. We struggle to have enough for this, let alone the need to replace clothing wet with rain.
These people could cross from Turkey by ferry to Athens and cut out Lesvos altogether. The EU government must act to stop this insanity.
