Survivors of the Greece boat disaster say an attempt by the Greek coastguard to tow the boat made it sink.
Survivors of the Greece boat disaster say an attempt by the Greek coastguard to tow the boat made it sink.
"The Greek authorities have previously denied this, claiming that when they tried to tie a rope to the boat to come aboard and assess the situation, people on board tried to remove it, saying they wanted to travel on to Italy. "
They probably tried to remove it because towing an old ship full of hundreds of people is really dangerous.
This is messed up and should never have happened.
