Next to him is 22-year-old Ahmad Natsheh from Gaza. He is broken."I will kill myself here if I do not cross and if the UN will not accept me then no one will accept me because I have no money and no passport," he says.
"[We] have left everything behind - look at them now," one says, pointing at his group."They only have a rucksack. That's all. They left everything and have come because Erdogan said the border was open. Where is it open?!"For the Turkish president, that drive and hunger for a new beginning is a political bargaining chip.At the official crossing further north, the cameras are now being held well back. But footage filmed by the migrants at the crossing shows clashes.
They are encouraged not only by the Turkish government but also by their own social media groups, often run by smugglers, which buzz with images and video showing the migrant movement westwards. We even found old videos, from 2015, presented as new, showing migrants successfully passing over the borders.
Further to the south, boats have been leaving the Turkish coast for the Greek islands, and about 500 people have arrived in the past 24 hours - not an unusually high figure.
Can't blame the Greeks for such actions, the instigators are the Turks, but the EU must do more to support Greece to process these people in order to distinguish the 'refugees from economic migrants', it's apparent not all from Syria.
Lights .... Camera ... action ....
Never trust a Turk!
Jebaited 😂😂😂
You have to feel sorry for the people, but it is very irresponsible of Turkey to be doing this, giving people false hopes.
Fake news. They are illegal migrants attacking border guards and the environment in general by setting fires etc. IStandWithGreece
We must keep our borders closed. The illegal immigrants can spread the coronavirus even more. The European peoole had enough of illegals that ghink they have every single right to just take and take from us. Europe is done with illegals. Go home and fix your country crybabies.
It's shocking.
I hate seeing children dragged into this conflict.
Use them kids ! Should have thought harder chap
And they wanted them to join the common market
I wonder where they are headed? Free council house Free medical care Free benefits All encouraged by the loony’s
It’s just the kids and babies I feel sorry for, they have no choice
How did you find the babies ? 90% seem to be young male thugs
Look at the pic carefully?
All masterminded by the EU.....
Bot cruel. Migrants. Economic migrants trying to enter illegally. A lot have nice clothes on their backs, phones in their hands. Most seem to be men. Nothing cruel about protecting your borders.
It’s their use as pawns by the Turkish side that is pitiful and sad. No regard for human lives whatsoever.
Click bait journalism. Look up the word impartial.
Fake news
Greece have every right to protect their borders I'm 100% behind Greece.... But also with Turkey they should have more protection from the UN an attack on one member is an attack on us all.... The un doesn't want to stick up for one of its own because its scared of Russia
Not like Europeans are any better. All the talk about human rights and this is what they do. Atleast let them pass through to other countries
And here’s the real news
AlistairBurtUK This is disgusting people are people.
Muslim on Muslim crime. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
You mean ILLEGAL immigrants right?
A neoottoman Warmonger & Islamists’Collaborator bullies &threatens all its neighboring nations &fights with others further beyond,while waging a HybridWar against Greece. Trafficked swiftly byTurkish Airlines (BBC’s official sponsor)myriads of illegal immigrants from non-war....
Unfortunately no one wants them . It’s as simple as that . Every country has its own problems . And as it is today can’t take any more .
The migrants HAVE the tear gas!
Why are they calling them refugees? They are migrants.
Is there a Gofundme page to arm the Greeks? They are protecting us all ❤️❤️❤️
What is cruel, sky, is that you have absolutely no compassion for the way of life of European citizens. And that you somehow think there’s an automatic responsibility when these people have the same capabilities to build a life where they come from.
as usual u photograph children and women, when in actual fact 99% are violent thugs trying to break into a country illegally
Sky news stop telling your one sided news showing these invaders being tear gassed, when they are throwing petrol bombs, bricks, and anything else. They have no right to come to europe, we don't want them..go ask turkey what they think they are doing. We don't want them.
SKY is now a poor BBC
Question is why they're not chosen dubai UAE IRAN Qatar, Oman, pakistan, Bangladesh, Indonesia, Malaysia, 57 muslims countries in the world why they're chosen only Europe why? Why? Why?
All I can see is men, men who have left their motherland instead of fighting and rebuilding it, it's their war they should fight it, but they protest against us for not helping them. They should face their enemy not turn their backs and run. COWARDS...
Why they're not going to middle East countries 57 muslims countries in the world why only they're going to European countries Why? Why?
Greece, just do it. Don’t be like Australia.
Sky's bullshitting again.
The question is, why SkyNews is not intetested in photos like this.
And Encourages Turkey, to do it. You are not helping. Ofcom
The 'illegal immigrants' should be sent back home. Or they could go to a safe closer country. Why isn't your story about Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Jordan, etc & why they are not going there!
Oh look staged photos with Babies. I bet you had to hunt for hours to find them too!
I wonder how long sky had to look for a father and child to photograph. Because from numerous videos I've seen.. The total number of children I've seen is 0
The EU shoulders responsibility for enabling Erdogan to get away with these tactics for this long: weaponizing migration & the refugee crisis to blackmail, threaten EU member states to advance his foreign policy agenda. A major policy intervention is desperately needed.
Let's create a bigger safe zone in Syria. Why Turkey would deliberately bus them to the border is beyond me. And why is this guy holding a baby like it is a battering ram?
Going for the sympathy with the kid in picture.
Dressing your kids up and using them to try to sway the public does not work ! You all need to return to turkey 🇹🇷 and then go home ! We don’t want you in Europe
Invaders being used by Turkey to attack and undermined Europe... Just one more in a long series of attempted conquests. If they succeed you won’t like the results, if you survive.
It is even more cruel for Greece_under_attack who are bravely and fearlessly fighting for their country to stop the invasion ,with no help from the oblivious and hypocritical EU . IStandWithGreece
The Turkish Dictator Erdogan showing his true colours.
Sky arseholes, Greece can not afford them, if they start fighting to get into Greece, fair play to the Greek authorities
Do you think you're pulling on our heart strings with this fake News? Report in its entirety. WE CANNOT FIT THE WHOLE WORLD INTO EUROPE FOR THE AVOIDANCE OF BEING CALLED RACIST!
Turn around, go back. No tear gas.
Where did you manage to find a child to take this picture People who try to force their way over closed borders, while they are safe where they previously were, are not even illegal immigrants. They are invaders!! Like it or not.
