The migrant camp, Moria, on Lesbos was nearly burned down last year. It is unclear exactly how the fires started, but Greek Migration Minister Notis Mitarachi said the “incidents in Moria began with the asylum seekers because of the quarantine imposed”. Some of the 35 people who had tested positive for Covid-19 had reportedly refused to move into isolation with their families. Mr Mitarachi did not say, however, that the fires were a deliberate act of arson aimed at destroying the camp. Michalis Fratzeskos, deputy mayor for civil protection, told ERT the blaze was “premeditated”. Migrant tents had been empty, he said, and arsonists had “taken advantage of strong winds”.
