Tragedy and Tenacity: Migrants Face Peril, Teen Hero Emerges

International News Roundup: Migrant Tragedy in Greece, Iranian Overture to US, and More

A collision between a migrant boat and a Greek coastguard vessel off the coast of Chios resulted in at least 15 deaths, authorities reported Wednesday. According to coastguard officials, the bodies of 11 men and three women were recovered from the sea. One woman later died in hospital. A search and rescue operation is underway in the area.

In a separate development, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian stated Tuesday that he instructed Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi to pursue "fair and equitable" negotiations with the United States, signaling a potential shift in Tehran's approach to easing tensions. Published by Euronews, this marks the first clear indication that Tehran is willing to negotiate amidst heightened tensions with Washington. Tensions between the two countries escalated after threats of military intervention.

Meanwhile, at Heathrow Airport, an Air India Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner was grounded following reports of a "possible defect" with a fuel control switch. According to Sky News, the potential fault was on the same model of aircraft that crashed in Ahmedabad last June. Air India stated they were getting "the pilot's concerns checked on a priority basis" after the incident reported on flight AI132 from Heathrow to Bengaluru on Monday.

In Australia, a 13-year-old boy, Austin Appelbee, swam for approximately four hours to shore to raise the alarm after his family was swept out to sea on Friday. Sky News reported that Appelbee battled "massive" waves after he, his mother, brother, and sister encountered difficulties on an inflatable kayak and paddleboards due to strong winds. Appelbee said he was thinking happy thoughts to get him through his gruelling swim to shore through rough seas, while the rest of his family were singing and joking to keep their spirits up while they waited for rescue.

Adding to the global news, Palestinian women returning to Gaza from Egypt through the Rafah border crossing described a harrowing experience. Al Jazeera reported that the women, among the few allowed to enter Gaza on Monday, were allegedly separated from their children, handcuffed, blindfolded, and interrogated under threat for hours. The women described the journey as a "journey of horror."
