Coastguard
signals to refugee boat

Some
of the Syrians fleeing the conflict in their country have crossed
Turkey aiming for Greece, in order to claim asylum in the European
Union. But to get there they have to take to boats - and there have
been persistent reports of Greek officials pushing them back into
Turkish waters, sometimes with fatal results.
"Everything
we would do for our families and our fathers, we do the same thing
for these people. We bury them in the Islamic way," says Ekrem
Serif-Oamadoglou, as he points to 400 freshly dug graves clustered on
the remote hillside.
