Asylum-seekers attacked the premises of the European Asylum Support Office (EASO) on the island of Lesbos on Monday (24 October), protesting against delays in dealing with asylum claims, Greek and EU authorities said.
About 70 people, mostly from Pakistan and Bangladesh, threw rocks and burning blankets at EASO containers inside the Moria migrant camp, damaging three of those, a Greek police spokesman for the island said.
EASO spokesman Jean-Pierre Schembri said protesters had hurled petrol bombs while interviews with asylum-seekers were taking place. EASO staff had evacuated the camp. …

Also ironic that the name of the “migrant” camp is Moria. Is there a balrog there?
What exactly are you implying?
So patient these people! I think I would be kissing the backside of someone who allowed me into their country to save me and my family from rape, hunger and death.
Curious what you’re inferring.
Not all Balrogs were bad eggs. Sure, they shrouded themselves in darkness at the roots of the Earth and they liked to swing those thonged fiery whips.
But Durin’s Bane made his own clothes, had a nice personality and all the other Balrogs like him. And a few dwarves too.
Implying? Nothing at all. This is the island (in)famous for the poetess Sappho, and from whose name the term for female homosexuals was derived. If that’s what you’re asking about.
Let’s not bicker and argue over who smote who. That was Jimi a long time ago.
I’m sure there was no slur intended against dark, fearsome middle Earth monsters.
Now, middle east monsters, that’s something else.
Just send the idiots back where they came from. And keep their ID—just in case they try again. Then they go to Antarctica. To die...
Trump has promised recidivist border jumpers long prison sentences.
Go Trump, win win win!
Why would Pakistanis and Bangladeshis be seeking asylum on a Greek island? Who is persecuting them in their native lands? How did they manage to get there? Did they use travel agencies?
All unasked questions in the venue referred to here, no less.
They are throwing petrol bombs at their hosts? Is this the sort of “citizen” that Europe wants to recruit?
Sadly, by their actions, I’d say yes, this is exactly the sort of citizen that Sweden, Austria, et al are looking for.
No wonder the democrats hate him!
I would hope that they had video and would use this as a positive. Any terrorist throwing rocks or committing arson should be denied asylum and sent home. The rest should be rejected too, but the violent terrorists should go home immediately.
Dang furrin’ lesbians.
Their preferred land route takes them to Turkey, and Lesbos is about as close to the Turkish coast as you can throw a baby for the press cameras. That puts them on EU soil, land of unlimited benefits (and the odd rape or two).
