By EUobserver
Greek government figures cited 143,472 "preventions of illegal entries" of migrants at the Evros land border with Turkey from April to November 2021, said the Refugee Support Aegean in a tweet on Monday. Some 98,798 such incidents were registered during the same period in 2020. Greece has been accused of numerous illegal pushbacks of migrants, which it continues to deny.
