Afghan Asylum Seekers Stranded In Greek Waters Seek Rescue Support

A video clip which has been circulating on social media depicts a boat stranded in Greek waters while ferrying dozens of refugees. The person who recorded the video clip said that around 100, most of whom are children, are asylum seekers and have been stuck in the boat.

The crying children and panicked adults could be heard in the video clip.

The person who is heard in the video clip speaks in Persian and said that the boat is on the verge of sinking and the children are in poor health condition.

The nationality of these asylum seekers is not clearly known, but it seems that they are Afghans.

This video has been viral on social media for the last two days, but there is no information as to whether anyone has rushed to rescue these stranded asylum seekers.

The exact location of the recording of the video clip is not known, but it has been said that this video was recorded in Greek waters.

Afghan refugees, who seek asylum in Europe, usually migrate through Turkey and Greece and take dangerous routes towards European destinations.
