The migrants bolted across a street
and clambered over a fence into the
Greek port at Patras, scouting
around for trucks to stow away in.
Dozens at a time scaled a 2-km
stretch of fence one afternoon last
week, playing cat-and-mouse with
police officers who pushed them
back only for the men to try again
hours later.

They are part of a growing number of migrants in Greece trying daily to smuggle
themselves onto ferries at Patras to get to Italy. It's a dangerous passage but it has
become more appealing since the closure in 2016 of the overland Balkan route to
northern Europe.
A few hundred, mostly young Afghan or Pakistani men, squat in abandoned factories
facing the port and shower in water that ran yellow from rusty pipes.
At night, with fewer officers on patrol, a Reuters team witnessed groups breaking into
locks to get into trucks or crawling under tarpaulins.
"Get down! Get down from there!" an officer with the coast guard's special forces
squad yelled at a man peering at him from the undercarriage of a truck lined up for
embarkation control, who was then handcuffed and escorted away.

Authorities arrested 760 people hiding
in trucks or carrying forged travel
documents at Patras in January and
February, close to a third of the total
of 2,627 arrests in 2017, according to
official data. In 2016, 1,040 people
were arrested.
Those arrested are held at most
overnight before they are released,
and many try their luck again the
following day.

to the naked eye: two men
were discovered lying on
their backs in a fuel tank.

The route from Patras, one of
two ports linking Greece to
Italy, is not new but when
Europe's refugee crisis began
in 2015 and nearly a million
people landed in Greece on
boats, taking the overland
road to countries like
Germany was a safer option.

When those borders closed in March
2016 and a European Union deal
with Turkey stranded over 50,000
refugees and migrants in Greece,
Patras started buzzing again, said
Dimitris Kyriakoulopoulos, a coast
guard captain overlooking the port.
“What we're dealing with here is a
gradual increase in the number of
these people," he said.

Migrants jump off a truck they were hiding in as Coast Guard officers stand by.
Anger is simmering among truck drivers,
who sometimes chase migrants away with
sticks, fearing arrest if a stowaway is found
among their freight.
One driver, who gave his name as Harry,
climbed into his truck to find three migrants
hiding among stacks of aluminum last
Thursday night.
"It's awful. It doesn't get more awful than
this and no one takes responsibility," he said.

No one can say how many migrants make
it across. Italian authorities returned 147
people to Greece last year, up from 112 in
2016 and 44 in January and February,
according to Greek data.
Italy's Interior Ministry did not respond to
a request for comment.
Across the port in the squat, migrants
spoke of their friends who made it to Italy
and said they, too, would keep at it
despite the risks.
"Everything is dangerous," said Arshad
Wardak, 24, from Afghanistan. "You have
to go through all the suffering to get into
a better place. So this is why everybody is
trying."

Russia holds a presidential
election on Sunday but
voting has already begun
in the flat, snow-covered
expanses of the Siberian
Arctic, which are home to
the nomadic Nenets
people who herd reindeer.

Since late February, 282
members of the Nenets
community, as well as some
oil industry workers, have
cast their ballots.

The area has no roads but politics reaches it anyway, thanks to Maria
Uglovaya, her helicopter and a handful of ballot boxes.
"A few months ago, we met with the head of one of the communities and
he told us where they and their herds would be during these two weeks,"
said Uglovaya, deputy head of the regional election commission.
"Then we flew 400 km to meet them. If their coordinates had been even
a few points off, we would never have found them. The territory is vast,"
she said. Eight herders were unable to vote because they did not make it
in time to the meeting point, which was marked by a reindeer hide tent.

So strangers, especially ones with ballot boxes, are a rare event and the atmosphere is
festive, even though the outcome of the election is not seriously in doubt. President
Vladimir Putin is expected to win a fourth term in office.
"Who the president is has an impact on us, yes," said a member of the community,
Elena Tuleeva, 39. "If there are some laws there, they reach us too."
Tuleeva, who has always voted for Putin, said she knew several candidates in the race
as she'd seen them on television.
"If the weather is good, we put up the satellite dish and then we watch the news," she
said. The dish is mounted on a sleigh to make it easier to move when looking for signal.

For the Nenets, environmental
issues are where the
government has the most
direct impact on daily life.
"They keep building these oil
fields around us ... In one area
we go sometimes, they've put
up all these drills and pipes,
and people drive all over. Soon
there won't be any pasture
ground there for our herd at
all."
Uglovaya, who has worked for
Russia's electoral system for
two years, agreed.

"The Nenets, they see
themselves as part of the
earth, as part of the land
... That's why, even if
they're so far-removed,
they vote," she said.

Election officials can only
reach the nomadic voters
when weather permits. A
blizzard last week saw
visibility in some areas drop
as low 10 metres, interrupting
their daily helicopter flights.

only visit the local capital, the
