Athens, June 14 (RHC)-- At least 59 migrants drowned earlier today after their boat capsized off the Greek coast.  Over 100 people were rescued, though it’s not clear how many passengers were on the Italy-bound vessel before it sank.  It’s the deadliest shipwreck off the Greek coast this year.

In related news, the International Organization for Migration says it recorded nearly 3,800 deaths in 2022 along land and sea routes in the Middle East and North Africa region, an 11% jump from the previous year.
