"18 dead in presumed migrant accident
THESSALONIKI, Greece (AP) — Eighteen bodies have been found in a coastal area near the borders of Turkey and Greece, and they appear to be illegal immigrants who died in a boat accident, authorities said Tuesday.
Eight of the bodies — seven men and one boy — were found over several days beginning Thursday in Greece near the border city of Alexandroupolis. Two of those bodies were found tangled in nets by local fishermen. The others were recovered on an abandoned coastline or in the sea, police and coast guard officials said. One of the victims was carrying Iraqi identity papers."
