11 bodies, believed illegal migrants, wash up on Evros River banks

Eleven bodies have been washed up on the banks of the Evros River in the last few days, authorities announced on Wednesday. Nine were found by fishermen during the last 48 hours, while two were found on Saturday.
The bodies belonged to six men and five women and were all found on the riverside between Dilofos and Marasio. They are believed to belong to a group of illegal immigrants that attempted to cross the border from Turkey in a boat or dinghy that either sank or capsised.
All 11 were taken to a morgue in the NE city of Alexandroupolis for an autopsy, while coroners estimate that they were each young individuals aged between 20 and 25 years old.
