COVID-19 PANDEMIC: Turkey sealed its gates over a virus

It added concerns over high numbers of migrants arrivals from Turkey, about 100 per day which causes severe crowding at the refugee camps.The biggest fear for the President of Turkey, Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, is that, the refugees returning from the Greek - Turkey border will be a threat to the country since the new ones from Iran will be among them. Iran is considered as a "Hotspot" for Coronavirus Outbreak. According to a source, currently Turkey hosts for around 4 million refugees and most them them were said to be Syrians.However, around 500 migrants tried to cross the border and the Greek and Turkey authorities fired tear gas over them. This clash lasted for 2 hours.According to a report, the migrants have started to leave the borders and they are sending back to their places where they actually belong. These people, now don't know what to do next and where to go. They left their places with a hope that they will be kept safe. With that ray of hope, they left everything behind. Now the biggest question is, "What will these people will do for their accommodation and employment?" Who will be the one to be responsible for them?Now, Turkey and other countries lacked in "Human Fellow-Ship".
