Frustrated Desperate Refugee Sets Himself On Fire In Protest Over European Border Closures


A desperate refugee was filmed setting himself on fire in protest at European border closures. The man can be seen running, with his sweatshirt and jeans ablaze, through the sprawling encampment at Idomeni near Greece's border with Macedonia border.


The flames were put out by other refugees and the young man was taken to hospital.

Greek police said his injuries were not life-threatening.

Other refugees were also pictured apparently setting themselves alight.
