그리스 경찰이 터키 접경 에브로스강 지역에서 시리아, 아프가니스탄 등 제3국 출신 이주민들을 이른바 '용병'으로 포섭하여 다른 이주민들을 강제로 돌려보내는 '푸시백(Pushback)' 작전에 동원했다는 사실이 언론 보도와 인권 단체의 조사를 통해 드러났다. 복면을 쓴 이들은 경찰의 지휘 아래 폭행, 강도, 가혹 행위를 저지르며 이주민들을 추방했으며, 이는 국제법상 불법인 푸시백의 책임을 회피하고 은폐하기 위한 수단으로 비판받고 있다. 그리스 정부는 관련 의혹을 부인하고 있으나, 내부 문건과 증언이 잇따르며 진상 규명 요구가 거세지고 있다.
