79 migrants die in shipwreck off Greece |
At least 79 migrants drowned Wednesday when an overloaded boat capsized in open Mediterranean waters off Greece. Hundreds more people were missing and feared dead. The disaster could become one of Europe's deadliest maritime tragedies in years. A rescue-support charity said about 750 people were believed to be on the boat, estimated to be 65 to 100 feet long. Rescuers managed to pull at least 104 survivors out of the water. Military aircraft fired flares to illuminate the water to help crews search for more survivors overnight. The vessel reportedly left Libya with mostly refugees from Egypt, Syria, and Pakistan on board. |
