The bodies of migrants are seen on a beach after the boat capsized in the Aegean Sea. Authorities report that at least five children were among the dead.

Members of the Turkish military work to recover the bodies. Authorities managed to save 75 people on the same boat, which contained people from Myanmar, Afghanistan and Syria.

"Deaths on this route are increasing at an alarming rate," Joel Millman, a spokesman for the International Organization for Migration, said this month.
