NORTH MACEDONIA-PRESPA LAKE-MIGRATING BIRDS
KYTHIRA, Greece (AP) — Two boats carrying migrants have sunk in separate incidents in Greek waters. The coast guard said 16 of the bodies were young African women, while one was a young man. They had been recovered near the eastern island of Lesbos after a dinghy carrying about 40 people sank. Several hundred kilometers to the west, locals pulled survivors to safety up steep cliffs by rope as others were buffeted by waves as they waited their turn on tiny areas of rock at the bottom.
