ATHENS — Fire swept through Greece’s largest refugee camp that had been placed on lockdown, leaving more than 12,000 migrants in emergency need of shelter on the island of Lesbos on Wednesday.
In dramatic scenes overnight, the migrants at Moria refugee camp fled fires that broke out at multiple points and gutted much of the camp and surrounding hillside olive groves.
There were no reports of injuries.
A government spokesperson said that arson was being considered as a possible cause of the fire.(AP)
