At least 22 migrants die on boats off Crete as Libya crossings surge
At least 22 people died and two are missing after two migrant boats from Libya got into trouble south of Crete between 7 and 9 November. Survivors said they ran out of fuel, food and water after days at sea, and two Sudanese nationals have been arrested as suspected smugglers. The deaths come as arrivals on the Libya-to-Crete route keep rising.
