Shutting the doors

Tiny shoes and empty juice boxes with faded Turkish labels can still be found on the northern coast. So can black doughnut-shaped inner tubes, given by smugglers as crude life preservers for children. At Moria of Lesbos, a refugee camp destroyed by fire in 2020, children's drawings remain on gutted building walls.

Those who died crossing to Lesbos are buried in two cemeteries, their graves marked as "unknown".
