More bodies have been found on a boat discovered south of Greece, bringing the total number of deaths to 14.
A tragic situation is unfolding south of Greece. Rescuers found a boat carrying migrants, and the number of people who died on board has now reached 14. Authorities had been searching the area after the vessel was first spotted. As they recovered more bodies, the death toll continued to rise. Migrants often travel by sea to try to reach Europe, but these trips are extremely dangerous. Boats are often overcrowded and not safe for the open water. This latest discovery is another sad reminder of the risks people take when trying to find a new life.
