Athens: Four migrants died in the Aegean Sea on Wednesday, the Greek coastguard said, the latest migrant boat sinking in recent weeks.
The coastguard said in a statement the bodies of three men and a woman had been recovered near the island of Rhodes, while another 25 people had made it to shore.
No details were immediately available on the vessel that went down.
In late October, two people died near the island of Samos. Four more, including two infants, were lost near the island of Kos a few days earlier.
Rhodes is among Greek islands that have seen a growing influx of asylum-seekers in recent months.
