The victims, nearly all of them men from Afghanistan and Pakistan, drowned when the large trawler they were travelling in capsized off the southern Peloponnese. More than 100 people were rescued from the overcrowded fishing vessel that was reportedly sailing from Libya for Italy.

  2. The missing 27-year-old Polish woman Anastasia was found dead on Sunday in the Alykes area of Kos.

    According to Proto Thema, a volunteer searcher found Anastasia under a tree in a bag covered with branches about one kilometre from the house of the 32-year-old Bangladeshi, who entered Greece illegally .

  3. No one will talk about how tough have EU made for a person to migrate there from Asia legally. The bank statement, the documents, the fee at every stage is so hard. But no one will talk about that and people are dying
