Greece has pleaded for help to deal with the daily influx of migrants arriving on its shores as it is revealed more than 100,000 refugees made their way to Europe in just a month.
New data has revealed 21,000 refugees and migrants arrived in Greece last week alone, leaving the country's unprepared registration system struggling to deal with the growing crisis.
Almost 110,000 people crossed into Europe through unofficial channels in July, compared to just 70,000 people in June. Germany has revealed it expects to register 750,000 refugees this year, compared to just 203,000 claims last year.
The figures released by Frontex, also show the number of detections between January and July reached nearly 340,000, compared to 123,500 in the same period last year and 280, 000 in all of 2014.

Were in those areas. There is no American EBT, social programs there for immigrants there illegally.
They are told to go to one very poor area to sleep and they are not allowed to work anywhere.
They are forced to sell junk all over the place to tourist.
Our illegals are better than their illegals. Puke.
Europe needs to end this or Europe will end.
To paraphrase Lady Thatcher, at some point you run out of other people’s land to colonize.
At 100K, they are no longer “refugees”, they are an invasion force.
It’s an invasion plain and simple.
Why risk their lives? I am sure th UN human resettlement program would make it easier.
I’m under the impression that many of these are Christians that are being run out of their homes by Muslims. Either they go or die.
Is that not true?
Nope. By far the greatest number are muslims fleeing the crap holes they have created, and will insist on recreating in Europe.
Gun boat picket line. Sink all invading vessals.
They are headed to Germany because Germany has the most generous benefits for refugees in all of Europe. If they were truly anything other than economic refugees why would they not simply walk across the border into Turkey where it is safe and stay there rather than risking their lives crossing the Aegean from Turkey into Greece? Much like Central American “refugees” crossing Mexico into the US for the goodies rather than simply walking a few miles next door into Nicaragua where it is safe and gang free.
That certainly is true of a large number of Christians from Syria, Eritrea and Ethiopia (Orthodox and Coptic, mostly). How large a percentage of the total, however, is anybody's guess. But there's enough of them in the Calais camp (trying to get across to the UK) to have built their own shack church. Incidentally the BBC is broadcasting from there an episode of its popular Sunday-afternoon hymn-singing show Songs of Praise.
