Many more feared missing from vessel that reportedly sailed from Libya for Italy
At least 78 people have died and scores more are 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 boat they were travelling in capsized off the southern Peloponnese. The vessel, thought to have been carrying several hundred people, had set out from eastern Libya for Italy. It was unclear whether it was a fishing trawler or cargo ship.
