Fifty migrants saved from sinking boat

Patrick Kingsley, of the Guardian newspaper, has been on a boat in the Aegean sea, off the coast of Agathonísi in Greece. It's a favourite with refugees because it's far from the Turkish Coast and not well patrolled by the Greek coast guards, but that also makes it a dangerous option. Today, Patrick witnessed 50 people, including women and children, being rescued by the Migrant Offshore Aid Station (MOAS).
