Migrant Boat Overturn Claims Four Lives Near Greek Island
(MENAFN) At least four people died when a migrant boat capsized off the Greek island of Lesvos on Monday, a Greek broadcaster reported.
The Greek coast guard said seven others were rescued, and search-and-rescue operations were ongoing despite strong winds reaching force six on the Beaufort scale.
The total number of people aboard the vessel at the time remains unknown. Survivors—all Sudanese nationals—do not speak English, complicating communication.
Since 2015, Greece has been a key entry point for irregular migrants and refugees seeking access to the European Union, with more than one million arrivals recorded. Hundreds have tragically died at sea during these perilous crossings.
