Greek police are attempting to relocate the makeshift refugee camp near the Idomeni border crossing. Busses have been brought in to take away hundreds of migrants, but many are worried it will simply be a move to another camp and further draw out the asylum process. Instead, they prefer to take their chances with people smugglers to make their way north. Despite their uncertainty, the process has been relatively calm thus far. "Everything that we’ve seen has gone, frankly, quite smoothly," said Chris Boian of the UNHCR, which is monitoring the operation. "We’ve seen no signs of violence."
