Greece has increased its fence border in fears of repeating the 2015 refugee crisis.

According to reports it has completed a 40-kilometre fence on its border with Turkey and installed a new surveillance system to stop possible asylum seekers from trying to reach Europe following the Taliban's takeover of Afghanistan.

A statement from the office of Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan says Afghanistan and Iran - a key route for Afghans into Turkey - should be supported or a new migration wave was “inevitable,".

Yesterday’s protests at the Queensland and New South Wales border in Coolangatta reported more than 1000 participants.

There was only one Queensland arrest, but several in New South Wales.

Acting Chief Superintendent Rhys Wildman said while the general conduct of protestors was to be applauded, there will be further investigations into those who crossed the border.

The rise in domestic violence incidents in Queensland has seen police spending 40% of their time attending to these calls.

Across the state, this averages to 295 incidents daily.

While this growth in calls is partly due to a growth of domestic and family violence incidents, particularly during the ongoing circumstances of the pandemic, there is also greater community confidence in policing response, meaning action is taken sooner.

The Australian government is accused of a spin over the visa approvals.

On Sunday a statement from the department said it has granted humanitarian visas to more than 100 Afghan nationals who worked at its embassy, a day after telling them their visa applications had been rejected.

The conflicting information has created confusion as thousands try to flee the Taliban regime.

Glenn Kolomeitz, a migration lawyer and former army major, accused the government of trying “to spin this to the media”, before informing his clients.

Twelve local government areas in greater Sydney wake to new strict rules.
