The rescue of little “Jonah”, the 50-day-old refugee boy who was rescued by coastguards in Tilos, quickly became known on the internet.

The infant was trapped for three days in a steep area, with his parents using seawater to make milk for him. The infant was named Jonah, in reference to the monk who came out to Tilos and founded the monastery of St. Panteleimon.

The Coast Guard announced another shipwreck late on Tuesday, with two dead and one missing.

The new Minister of Shipping and Insular Policy Miltiadis Varvitsiotis presented his priorities for the next period at noon, during the ceremony of handing over the Ministry of Shipping from the acting minister Th. Kliaris. The event was attended by all the representatives of the Greek shipping agencies.
