Greek coastguard divers search and recover bodies from the migrant boat wreck at Kythira island. The death toll from the migrant boat wreck, which prompted a dramatic cliffside rescue, has climbed to at least 11. A sailboat believed to have 95 people onboard sank near the island at the south of the Peloponnese peninsula Wednesday night.
The boats sank amid stormy weather as authorities launched a dramatic rescue.
