    According to Jerusalem Post ,The United Nation’s refugee agency has slammed Greek authorities over a severe deterioration in conditions at detention facilities for illegal migrants at the Greek-Turkish border.

    The last warning from the UN High Commissioner for Refugees, which came last Friday, indicates that popular trafficking routes, Greek islands in the Aegean Sea have changed.  The report states that new routes are towards the Greece-Turkey land border which is 200 km (125-mile)  long.

    The agency reported that the migrants detained in the border zone are jam packed into cells with “dire hygiene conditions.”
