Refugee influx in the island of Lesbos

An Afghan man showing me the breakfast he received from a local volunteers' soup kitchen, hours after his boat has been rescued by the Greek Coast Guard. The people of Lesbos island, many of whom come from families that were refugees themselves, provide meals and cloths for the refugees everyday. Everyday hundreds of refugees, mainly from Syria and Afghanistan, are crossing in small overcrowded inflatable boats the 6 mile channel from the Turkish coast to the island of Lesbos in Greece.
