Greece migrant boat disaster

With hundreds lost in the migrant shipwreck near Greece, identifying the dead is painfully slow 

  • The boat carrying 500-750 people from Pakistan, Syria and Egypt sank on June 14, one of deadliest shipwrecks in Mediterranean 
  • Only 104 people were pulled from the sea alive — all men and boys — while 82 bodies, only one of them a woman, were recovered
