At least 78 people dead and hundreds feared missing as refugee boat sinks off Greece

At least 78 people have died after a refugee boat sunk off the coast of Greece. Hundreds more were feared missing in the deadliest migrant shipwreck off Greece this year. 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
