EU Commissioner calls Greek migrant boat sinking 'worst ever tragedy' in Mediterranean

A migrant boat capsized off the coast of Greece, with hundreds of people missing and likely killed, making it the deadliest migrant boat sinking in modern times. The boat was carrying foreign nationals from Tobruk, Libya, to Italy when it sank in the ocean. The Greek coastguard has recovered 79 bodies and rescued over 100, but survivors claim there were as many as 750 people on board. The incident has sparked outrage in Europe over the ongoing migrant crisis, with EU Commissioner for Home Affairs Ylva Johansson calling it the "worst ever tragedy" in the Mediterranean and decrying the smugglers who organized the overpacked boat.
