Syrian migrants who arrived in Greece by its sea borders, sit on Omonia Square in Athens on April 25, 2015. Since Greece bolstered controls along its land border with Turkey along the Evros River, illegal migrants have turned to the maritime route between Turkey and the Greek islands in the Aegean Sea, notably Lesvos, Samos, Kos and Chios. Out of the 283,000 migrants caught illegally entering the European Union in 2014, more than 220,000 arrived via the Mediterranean Sea, according to EU officials . AFP PHOTO / ANGELOS TZORTZINIS
