1/3 I just came back from the Malakasa refugee center where 71 survivors of the #pylosshipwreck #Πυλος shipwreck are staying.
Three survivors confirmed that the Greek Coast Guard tied a rope to their boat, pull them AND THEN the boat capsized.

2/3 They told me after the boat capsized, the Coast Guards "took distance" from them and sailed away.
They say they stayed what it felt like 2-3 hours on the water until they were rescued.

3/3 This morning camp authorities didn't allow shipwreck survivors to go out of the fenced camp. "It feels like a prison" they told me.
Camp authorities tried to prevent me from speaking to survivors, asking me to stay away of the fence.
Report for @SyriaDirect soon
