A devastating fire ripped through the island’s Moria camp last Wednesday …
Four young Afghan men have been charged with arson for alleged involvement in fires that destroyed most of a large refugee camp on the eastern island of Lesbos, Greek authorities have said.
The court appearance came just hours after another fire threatened a camp of more than 47,000 people on Samos island late on Tuesday night.
The men allegedly involved in the September 8 fire on Lesbos, who have not been named, were led to a court on the island on Wednesday to be formally charged.
Along with arson, they faced a host of charges including fomenting unrest, property damage, illegal use of force and attempting to injure police.
