LESBOS, Greece—Greek police have detained six migrants over a fire that razed the Moria refugee camp to the ground, the government said on Tuesday, as thousands of displaced people refused to move to a new facility and demanded to leave Lesbos island.

Authorities were searching for one more person, Citizen Protection Minister Michalis Chrisohoidis said.
