Hundreds of refugees stranded in Idomeni staged a mock-breach of the Greek-Macedonian border on Sunday, after rumours spread online suggesting the checkpoint will be opened.
Refugees gathered along the railway track as a line of riot police stood in their path to monitor the gathering. At one point, refugees swelled against the wall of police but were pushed back by the authorities.
Around 14,000 refugees remain stranded in Idomeni. Humanitarian aid organisation Doctors Without Borders (MSF) have warned that the health of refugees staying there has worsened significantly since Macedonian authorities closed the country's borders with Greece on March 9.
