In this early Thursday, Oct. 3, 2019 photo, migrants and refugees sit in a Frontex patrol boat in the tiny harbor of Skala Sikamias, on the Greek island of Lesbos. They were picked up off a dinghy during a rescue operation. Greece's eastern islands are struggling to cope with a surge in arrivals of migrants and asylum seeks that has undermined efforts to ease severe overcrowding at refugee camps. The number of people reaching Lesbos, Samos, and other Greeks islands in the eastern Aegean Sea is the highest since the European Union reached a 6 billion euro agreement in 2016 to prevent migrants from leaving the Turkey coast and head to the EU.
