Vigil at Embassy of Greece, 14th June 6pm
Posted: May 30, 2024
On 14th June 2023, the “Adriana” packed with an estimated 750 refugees sank off the coast of Pylos, Greece. Over 600 people including many children drowned. Amnesty’s investigation points to the actions of the Greek coastguard contributing to the sinking of the boat and the huge loss of life.
The policies of deterrence by terrorizing refugees, employed by our governments Rwanda policy as well as violent pushbacks in the Mediterranean sea are cruel, barbaric and inhumane. We are calling for safe and legal routes for all refugees.
