Five Refugees Drown off Greece, 3-Month-Old Baby Among Them

LesbosFive migrants including a three-month-old infant have drowned after a speedboat taking them to Greece sank, according to Turkey’s state-run news agency.
According to Anadolu agency said the boat went down early on Thursday off Turkey’s western coast, on its way to the nearby Greek island of Lesbos.
Anadolu said nine people were rescued from the boat which was carrying Afghan and Iranian refugees.
The five dead are added on the long list of migrants who lost their lives during the perilous journey from Turkey to the Greek islands. The death toll has exceeded 3,000 so far as Europe and Turkey are in negotiations on tackling the people smugglers operating along the Turkish coasts.
