Refugees in Greece

Mustafa Dawa, who has voluntarily taken on the responsibility of providing Muslim burials to the refugees who die attempting to cross the Aegean Sea from Turkey, says a quick prayer over the nearly 70 graves he's dug so far on March 13, 2016 near Michos, Greece. The graveyard is built on land provided by local authorities after an original cemetery reached capacity, leaving bodies to languish in the local morgue.
