In the early morning of June 14, 2023, a severely overcrowded fishing trawler capsized close to Pylos in southern Greece leading to the death of more than 600 people. It had started its journey from Libya five days earlier with an estimated 750 migrants and asylum seekers, including children. Only 104 of those onboard survived and 82 bodies were recovered. Survivors interviewed by Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch pointed to the actions of the Hellenic Coast Guard as a potential cause of the tragedy.
Nine months after this tragedy three parallel court cases and several inquiries are taking place but nobody has been named responsible for the shipwreck.
