"Dead Calm": Witnesses Tell BBC Documentary How Greek Coastguard Threw Migrants Overboard to Their Deaths
Update: 2024-07-12
Description
We speak with the producer of a damning exposé on the deadly crackdown on asylum seekers by Greek authorities. A new BBC investigation reveals evidence of the Greek coastguard abducting and abandoning asylum seekers in the Mediterranean Sea, where thousands have died, mostly from Africa and the Middle East, as they attempt to reach Europe. Dead Calm: Killing in the Med? finds the Greek coastguard caused the deaths of as many as 43 migrants in the Mediterranean over a period of three years — including nine asylum seekers who had reached Greek soil but were taken by the Greek coastguard back out to the sea and then thrown overboard.
