A collision occurred between a migrant boat and a Greek Coast Guard vessel in the Aegean Sea near Chios, resulting in at least 14 fatalities, according to the Coast Guard.

The incident took place around 9pm local time on Tue, Oct 10, 2023, near the Mersinidi area of Chios, as reported by the Athens-Macedonian News Agency (AMNA).

The Coast Guard reported that 26 individuals, including 24 migrants and two Coast Guard officers, were rescued and taken to a hospital in Chios. Among the injured were seven children and a pregnant woman. The exact number of people on the speedboat remains unclear.

A search-and-rescue operation, involving patrol boats, a helicopter, and divers, was initiated in the area as per AMNA.

A Coast Guard official indicated that the collision occurred when the migrant boat maneuvered towards the Coast Guard vessel, which had instructed it to turn back.

Greece has historically been a key transit point for migrants and refugees from the Middle East, Africa, and Asia attempting to reach Europe. In 2015 and 2016, the country experienced a significant migration crisis, with nearly one million people arriving on its islands, including Chios, from nearby Turkey. However, arrivals have decreased in recent years due to Greece's stricter migration policies, which include enhanced border controls and sea patrols.

The country has faced scrutiny for its treatment of migrants and refugees arriving by sea. This includes a 2023 shipwreck where numerous migrants perished amid allegations of the Coast Guard's involvement in towing the trawler. The European Union's border agency is reviewing 12 potential human rights violation cases involving Greece, with some claims of asylum seekers being pushed back from the country's borders. Greece has denied these allegations.
