THREAD: On 1 June 11,237 refugees and migrants in Greece were asked to leave their accommodation. More will follow in the future. In the uncertainty of #COVID__19, which compounds risks for #refugeesgr, they are expected to earn and find homes for themselves. Some thoughts:
1/In March 2020 Greek law was changed so that, upon obtaining recognition, refugees and subsidiary protection beneficiaries would need to leave their accommodation within 30 days. Earlier, they had 6 months’ notice. This affects those in housing schemes, camps & other facilities.
2/@nmitarakis says that the 1 June deadline applies to 4000 people in #ESTIA housing scheme for 'vulnerable' people, run w/UNHCR, 1200 people renting places autonomously and 6037 residents of camps, hotels and other facilities. Cash assistance for basic needs is also discontinued
