200 Immigrants to be placed on Zakynthos

According to a report by local journalist Giorgos Gkogos, 200 immigrants will be hosted to begin with here in Zakynthos.

The information the report says has been checked.  A reception centre in Zakynthos there will be set up for migrants (PRO.KE.KA) and research has already begun to find the right facilities, since everything should be ready within two weeks!

The government will send 1,000 refugees to the Ionian Islands, with Zakynthos accepting 200 people for the first time!

The Minister of Citizen Protection, Michalis Chrysochoidis, summoned all 13 Regional Governors to a meeting, asking for their help in hosting the increased migration flows throughout Greece!

The Regional Governors, including Mrs Rodi Kratsa, have unanimously given the ‘green light’ and now all is being speed for the arrangements

Police at the local level are already examining places, with the most likely being the buildings of the old Zakynthos hospital. However other places are also being looked at.
