AP PHOTOS: Burned out migrants in Greece try to keep sane

THESSALONIKI, Greece (AP) — Kawa Mohammed lives in a small tent with his wife and his three children in the Kalochori refugee camp on the northern Greek city of Thessaloniki's outskirts. Because of a harsh winter and bitter cold, many migrants rarely venture out and away from the monotony and fluorescent lights hanging overhead. For me and my wife to feel busy, we spend our days doing nothing but walking around the camp, talking to neighbors and play games on my phone. Refugees here are able to get psychological or emotional support from nonprofit groups. More than 62,000 refugees and other migrants have been stuck in Greece since a series of Balkan border closures and a European Union-Turkey deal on stemming migration, according to Greek government data.
