(ANSA) - BELGRADE, MAR 12 - The Greek government is growing increasingly concerned about the recent increase in migrant flows to Crete's southern shores, and it expects the European Commission to intervene, according to the daily Kathimerini.
    Migratory flows to Crete have increased in recent days, with approximately 300 arriving over the weekend, and it is estimated that approximately 1,500 people arrived by sea from Egypt to Gavdos island, south of Crete, in the previous three months. The majority of the migrants are Egyptian men, with a small percentage claiming to be citizens of Bangladesh and Pakistan.
