Greek Ombudsman suggests disciplinary charges over 2023 deadly migrant shipwreck

  • A Greek Ombudsman has suggested disciplinary charges against eight coastguard officers for alleged dereliction of duty during a deadly migrant shipwreck in 2023 that resulted in hundreds of deaths.
  • The shipwreck occurred on June 14, 2023, near Pylos, Greece, with about 750 people on board, and only 104 are known to have survived.
  • Ombudsman Andreas Pottakis stated there were "clear indications" of the officers' failure to perform search and rescue duties, endangering lives aboard the Ariana.
  • The findings have been sent to Greece's Shipping Minister for further action, as the local naval court has also referred the case to a chief prosecutor.
