By EUobserver
Frontex, the EU border guard agency, is set to deploy more guards to Greece given a recent spike in number of arrivals from Turkey. Some 15,457 people crossed from Turkey into Greece so far this year. Of those, 6,108 passed through the land border - around nine times more than the same time last year. The rest arrived on the islands.
