Breaking: Naval Court issued charges against 17 ΛΙΜΕΝΙΚΟ ΣΩΜΑ officers in connection with the #Pylos shipwreck, who are now referred to a "main investigation". 600+ people died in the incident. Almost 2 years since the tragic events, the wheels of justice are finally moving.

The historic charges against 17 Hellenic Coast Guars officers over the #Pylos shipwreck inspire hope for truth and accountability and is an important step towards ending the cycle of violence and impunity at Greece’s borders. Well done to all involved! rsaegean.org/en/pylos-shipw…

The Naval Court in Greece has said 17 coast guard officers should face felony charges over a shipwreck on June 14, 2023, in which at least 500 migrants died. Greek authorities did not intervene in a timely or safe way despite the boat being obviously in distress.
