A group of invading migrants are dead after their boat capsized near Greece.
Sixteen people, including at least five children, drowned on Saturday when the small boat they on capsized in the Aegean Sea, Greek coast guard officials said.
The incident occurred off Greece’s Agathonisi island, which is close to the Turkish coast. The nationality of the victims was not immediately known.
Saturday’s incident was thought to be the highest death toll of migrants trying to reach outlying Greek islands for months.
Greek authorities said they believed there were 22 people on the boat. Greek coast guard vessels assisted by helicopters were searching for survivors.
Such a sad tale. A bunch of shitholers fleeing their shithole country drowned at sea trying to invade Europe. Tears are literally flowing down my face as I type these words.
Undoubtedly, we are going to see many more of these incidents in the months to come. Many more of these voyages are attempted in the warmer months.
