Default Greek coastguard threw Migrants overboard to their deaths

[The Greek coastguard has caused the
deaths of dozens of migrants
in the Mediterranean over
a three-year period, witnesses say,
including nine who were deliberately
thrown into the water.

The nine are among more than
40 people alleged to have died
as a result of being forced out
of Greek territorial waters,
or taken back out to sea after
reaching Greek islands,
BBC analysis has found.

The Greek coastguard told our
investigation it strongly rejects
all accusations of illegal activities.

We showed footage of 12 people being
loaded into a Greek coastguard boat,
and then abandoned on a dinghy,
to a former senior Greek coastguard officer.
When he got up from his chair, and
with his mic still on, he said it was
"obviously illegal" and "an international crime".]

Some may call it Murder,
the problem for Greece
is the Overloaded boats from Libya
and other African nations.
Far too many for that small nation.

Thumbs down

"witnesses say"

"The Greek coastguard told our investigation it strongly rejects all accusations of illegal activities."

"The initial sources were primarily local media, NGOs and the Turkish coastguard".

ABSOLUTE HEARSAY BOLlOCKS FROM THE WOKE AGENDA LED leftist BBC

I watched the programme about it on BBC2 this evening, truly shocking and the denials were laughable in the face of the truth.

Malta did this way before Greece though


former prime minister that time, Joseph Muscat even said such things in public ''leave them to drown in the sea, those filthy creatures''





maybe the refugees need to just stay in their own countries, and you wouldn't have these problems anymore

Absolutely shocking.
Not one of those officials looked at all truthful.
What has happened to humanity, you wouldn’t treat an animal like that.
Tourists should boycott Greece.
