Looking across Europe, arrivals to Greece and Italy alone account for 93% of the 381,307 arrivals in 2016 (as of 14December 2016). Congruently, nearly all new arrivals in 2016 have come to Europe by sea (93.6%). The number of migrants from Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan decreased and the number of migrants from Africa, particularly Nigeria and Eritrea, increased. At the end of May, migrants from Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan made up 68.5% of total arrivals, but by the end of November that fraction had dropped to just 42.8% , with an increasing share of arrivals being represented by Nigerians (10.6%) and Eritreans (5.9%).
