An eight-year-old boy and his nine-year-old sister suffered burns during an early-morning fire that erupted in a tent at a temporary refugee shelter in the Oreokastro township near Thessaloniki, northern Greece.  

The nine year old’s situation was judged as more serious. The children are part of a family that fled Syria for Turkey, then entered Greece.  

Authorities are investigating the cause of the fire.
