EU reaches agreement with Turkey over the migrant deal in a bid to stem the flow of refugees entering Europe. The core of the deal is to send refugees in Greece back to Turkey in exchange for two-fold increase of the migrant assistance fund.
Around two dozen refugees, believed to be Iraqi Kurds, reportedly died and 11 more were thought to be missing when their wooden boat capsized near the Greek island of Samos in a dangerous attempt to enter Europe through Greece.
