Today the No Borders Camp on the island of Lesvos, with a population of 300-400 people, was forcefully evicted. Around 6 o’clock in the morning the people in camp were brought to the detention center Moria in overcrowded buses. This camp is known for deporting the people seeking asylum back to Turkey without a fair examination of their application.

 

Volunteers from the No-Border Kitchen were detained on the grounds of collaborating with illegalized Refugees. According to our latest update, five members of the No Borders Kitchen are still being held in custody.

The No-Border Kitchen that has been active on the Island since last year and has been a sanctuary for many people fleeing the otherwise inhumane camps provided by the governement. This decision made by many refugees of remaining in the No-Borders Camp was in fact a form of protest against the precarious and intransparent situation in the other hotspots and camps.

Todays repercussions of this increasingly tense situation in Lesvos, is something we are all facing in one form or another. The lack of transparency perpetuated by media and government is intentional and something we can only fight if we keep up a solidary exchange of support and information.

FIGHT FORTRESS EUROPE! NO BORDER, NO NATION!

FOR THE FREEDOM OF MOVEMENT FOR EVERYBODY AND EVERYWHERE!
