  • When we arrived in Lesbos in Greece we thought that we will be safe, but they put us in a camp together with many Muslim man. Some of them looked like ISIS with long beards, some were Afghan, some Pakistani and there were some Arabs too. We were scared and we said to the police that they should put us in a separate place. <br />

In Leros the Afghans and Pakistanis attacked us few times, and sometimes after their Friday prayers they were making gestures like they wanted to behead us.
