Samos and Chios lie in the east of the Aegean Sea, near the Turkish coast.
Greece has been a favoured gateway to the European Union for migrants and refugees from the Middle East, Africa and Asia since 2015 when nearly a million people landed on its islands, mainly through Turkiye.
Numbers dropped significantly before rising again last year to 41,561 arrivals by sea. Some 10,854 migrants have reached Greece by sea so far this year. — Reuters
