- Greece has seen a 25-per cent increase this year in the number of migrants arriving, with a 30-per cent increase to Rhodes and the Southeast Aegean, according to the Migration Ministry.
- Greek government officials say the spike in migrant arrivals is being driven by conflicts in the Middle East.
