Number of Child Evacuees from 1974 Possibly Over 5,000
Andreas Theodosiou, head of the group "Children that were hosted in Greece in 1974," reported to a parliamentary committee that the actual number of unaccompanied children evacuated to Greece between 1974 and 1979 may have exceeded 5,000 – more than double the officially registered 2,000. These new findings raise questions about the previous documentation of these historical events.
