An infant, a young child aged 6 years of age, and a woman drowned on Sunday in their attempt to reach the coast of the Greek isle of Lesvos at dawn on Sunday. Authorities report that a dinghy filled to the brim with 50 undocumented migrants and refugee battled with winds of seven on the Beaufort scale before their vessel crashed into a rocky area at Kara Tepe, north of the island and capsized.
