  "account": "A migrant boat carrying 77 people sank off the Greek island of Gavdos near Crete, resulting in one death and 25 people reported missing, according to the Greek coastguard. Rescue efforts are ongoing, with four ships, boats, Frontex aircraft, and a coastguard helicopter deployed in the search area. The 51 survivors were set to be transported to Crete, where authorities will follow proper procedures. Strong winds have complicated the search operation.
