Aegean Tragedy: 14 Refugees Drown off Turkey’s Bodrum Coast

At least 14 migrants drowned after an inflatable boat capsized off the coast of Bodrum early Friday, according to the Muğla governor’s office.

One Afghan man survived after swimming ashore and alerting authorities, while two others remain missing.

Turkish coastguards continue search and rescue operations in the Aegean Sea — another deadly reminder of the ongoing peril faced by refugees attempting irregular crossings to Europe.
