Two child asylum seekers were removed from a refugee camp in Greece, taken out to sea on a coastguard vessel and left alone to drift on a motor-less rubber dinghy, a legal complaint against Athens lodged in the European Court of Human Rights has alleged.
Turkish authorities found two Afghan teenagers, aged 15 and 16, paddling with their hands near Kusadasi on the Turkish coast on 9 September after the alleged “pushback” – the practice of forcibly turning those seeking asylum away from the border.
