Five Sailing Boats with 450 Migrants Attempted to Enter Greece

CHIOS – A Coast Guard rescue operation is underway in the sea region between the islands of Chios and Samos involving five sailing boats that had set sail from the opposite Turkish coast carrying roughly 450 people that attempted to illegally enter Greece bound for a Greek island.

The Greek Coast Guard did not allow the entrance of the sailing boats while the Turkish Coast Guard was informed.

Two of the five sailing boats returned to the Turkish coasts while the other three are expecting the Turkish Coast Guard vessels to accompany them back to Turkey.
