Five die after migrant boat capsizes off Greek island, many feared missing

  • Five migrants died early on Saturday when a migrant boat sank off Crete, leaving 40 people reportedly missing while 39 survivors were rescued, according to Greece's Coastguard.
  • A rescue operation involving vessels and aircraft was underway in the sea south of the island of Gavdos after the boat capsized shortly after midnight, the Coastguard said.
  • Greece has seen a 25-per cent increase this year in the number of migrants arriving, with a 30-per cent increase to Rhodes and the Southeast Aegean, according to the Migration Ministry.
  • Greek government officials say the spike in migrant arrivals is being driven by conflicts in the Middle East.
