Some 200 Syrian refugees protesting in front of Greek Parliament for the last six days went on hunger strike this week.
The protesters have taped shut their mouths as they demand asylum and medical assistance. One of the Syrian women taking part in the protest fainted on and had to be taken to the hospital.
Attica Governor Rena Dourou said that she spoke to the head of the Church of Greece Ieronymos, Public Order Minister Vassilis Kikilias and Deputy Interior Minister Giorgos Dolios in an attempt to find a way to help the refugees.
