Greek coastguard rescues 85 migrants in Aegean Sea

Greece's coastguard on Jan. 2 rescued a group of 85 undocumented migrants including women and children from a sailing ship in the southeastern Aegean Sea, officials said.

"The migrants are currently being transferred to other vessels and will be taken to the island of Astypalaia," a coastguard spokeswoman told AFP.

The island of Astypalaia lies at almost 100 kilometers from the Turkish coast. Refugee traffic has soared over the past year because of the ongoing war in Syria. Arrivals to Greece by sea have increased with the refugee flow who board on boats from Turkey's southern coast to reach one of Greece's islands.

Παραβιάσεις δέκα τουρκικών ελικοπτέρων στο Αιγαίο

Tους τελευταίους μήνες, λόγω οικονομικής κρίσης, οι στρατιωτικές ασκήσεις των ελληνικών ενόπλων δυνάμεων στο Αιγαίο έχουν σχεδόν μηδενιστεί. Αντιθέτως, ο τουρκικός στρατός δεν έχει σταματήσει να ασκείται εντατικά και με τα σενάρια που υλοποιεί κατά τη διάρκεια των στρατιωτικών παιγνίων των τουρκικών αεροναυτικών δυνάμεων στο Αιγαίο αποκαλύπτει και τις επιδιώξεις του.
Μία από τις βασικές στοχεύσεις της Άγκυρας είναι η ανάληψη της ευθύνης για επιχειρήσεις έρευνας και διάσωσης στο Αιγαίο, ή έστω η προσπάθεια να αποκτήσουν οι Τούρκοι μέρος του ελέγχου των επιχειρήσεων «Search and Rescue», που σύμφωνα με τους διεθνείς κανόνες ανήκει στις ελληνικές αρχές για όλα τα περιστατικά εντός του FIR Αθηνών.
