HeadlineOct 06, 2022

In Greece, at least 15 migrants have died and dozens more remain missing after a pair of boats capsized off the coast of Greece. In the first incident, a boat carrying about 40 asylum seekers sank off the eastern island of Lesbos. So far, 15 bodies have been recovered from the shipwreck — all of them women.
