We keep on sending them home, and they keep on illegally crossing into Greece. Not 10, not 30, not 50 but 81 illegal immigrants were picked up by the Hellenic Coast Guard from different beaches on the island of Chios on Saturday, local reports said. The same reports noted that the immigrants were trapped in coves that were inaccessible by land and were rescued by the fire brigade and a Super Puma helicopter.
Strangely there was no information released about the nationality of the immigrants and certainly there was no information on how they got there, but a number of wrecked rubber dinghies were reportedely spotted off the island’s coast.
There were no reports of fatalities or injuries, nonetheless they were taken to a local hospital for checkups.
