Το δράμα των προσφύγων στα σύνορα της Ελλάδας με την ΠΓΔΜ καταγράφει ο φωτογραφικός φακός του πρακτορείου Reuters. Απελπισία, φόβος αλλά και ελπίδα για ένα καλύτερο αύριο…

Στα σύνορα, στην ουδέτερη ζώνη μεταξύ Γευγελής και Ειδομένης, η κατάσταση είναι δραματική, καθώς πάνω από 3.000 πρόσφυγες βρίσκονται εγκλωβισμένοι και διαμαρτύρονται έντονα προς τις αστυνομικές δυνάμεις της ΠΓΔΜ, ώστε να τούς επιτρέψουν να περάσουν τα σύνορα. Κάποιοι από αυτούς κατορθώνουν να περάσουν τη συνοριακή γραμμή από παράπλευρα μονοπάτια και ακολουθεί ανθρωποκυνηγητό με την αστυνομία.

Το απόγευμα της Παρασκευής, μετά τα επεισόδια που είχαν προηγηθεί, η αστυνομία της ΠΓΔΜ επέτρεψε σταδιακά την είσοδο στο έδαφος της χώρας σε 300-400 πρόσφυγες.

Αυτοί που πέρασαν τη συνοριακή γραμμή ήταν κυρίως ασθενείς, έγκυες και γονείς που κρατούσαν στα χέρια τα μικρά παιδιά τους. Με δάκρυα στα μάτια, κατάκοποι αλλά περιχαρείς, κατευθύνθηκαν πεζή στον σιδηροδρομικό σταθμό της παραμεθορίας πόλης Γευγελή, όπου έβγαλαν εισιτήρια και επιβιβάστηκαν σε δύο τρένα, με προορισμό τα σύνορα με τη Σερβία.

A Macedonian riot policeman stands guard as a Syrian refugee woman sits behind barbed-wire at the Greek-Macedonian border, near the village of Idomeni, August 21, 2015. Macedonian police fired tear gas and stun grenades to drive migrants and refugees back from its southern border from Greece on Friday but crowds continued to build up at a new bottleneck in an increasingly desperate flight to western Europe. At least 10 people were hurt in the brief flare-up, a day after the impoverished Balkan country declared a state of emergency on its border to halt a daily influx of up to 2,000 Syrians, Afghans, Iraqis and others heading north.
