THIS is the moment hundreds of migrants marched through the holiday island of Kos to find temporary shelter - as 1,200 refugees arrived in Greece in just TWO DAYS.
Crammed onboard overcrowded boats, mainly Syrian and Afghan men, women and children travelling in the eastern Aegean Sea from Turkey were picked up on the Greek islands of Kos, Lesvos, Chios and Farmakonissi.
Greece is, after Italy, the main destination for migrants who seek a better life in Europe.
Most of the immigrants flooding the country are people fleeing war, such as in the case of Iraq and Syria, or from severeeconomic crisis.
Almost 30,000 immigrants have already arrived in Greece by sea this year.
