Greek police began moving hundreds of migrants stranded on the island of Lesbos into a new temporary tent camp on Thursday, more than a week after a fire razed Greece's biggest migrant camp where they had been staying.

The operation, including 70 female officers, was intended to protect public health. Police said 450 migrants had entered the camp so far. Of those, 250 had gone through rapid COVID-19 testing with another 200 waiting to take the test.
