Greece boat tragedy: Coastguard finds 3 more bodies in migrant tragedy search – France 24
Issued on: Modified:
Greece’s coastguard has found three more bodies during a search for survivors after last week’s tragedy in which it’s believed hundreds of people drowned off the country’s southern coast. The bodies were found in the sea west of the Peloponnese peninsula, the area where the overloaded trawler capsized and sank. Only 104 people were rescued while UN officials say up to 500 people are still missing, and all this as we mark World Refugee Day this Tuesday; honouring the tens of millions of people forced to flee their homes to escape conflict or persecution. FRANCE 24’s correspondent Nathalie Savaricas from Athens has more.
