The island was engulfed in mourning, as bodies continued to wash ashore for weeks. Among those on the ill-fated boat was 13-year-old Rezwana, who had fled Afghanistan with her family. She was travelling with her parents and three siblings, but tragically, Rezwana was the only one in her family to survive.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Today, at 22 years old, Rezwana lives in Greece.

To mark the 9th anniversary of the shipwreck, we are releasing a video in collaboration with the PRO ASYL Foundation, in which Rezwana shares her story &#8211; one that reflects the harsh reality of European asylum and migration policies.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-befa2cd elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget-mobile__width-inherit elementor-widget elementor-widget-testimonial\" data-id=\"befa2cd\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"testimonial.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-testimonial-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-testimonial-content\">\"Until I die, this will be my nightmare. <br>The sea, the Aegean Sea.\"<\/div>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-testimonial-meta\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-testimonial-meta-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-testimonial-details\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-testimonial-name\">Rezwana<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-testimonial-job\">shipwreck survivor<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-eff3f1e e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"eff3f1e\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ab3411d elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"ab3411d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A major turning point for Rezwana was the identification of three of her family members and their graves in the refugee cemetery in Kara Tepe, Mytilene, with the help of RSA.

Sadly, however, her tragic experience is far from unique. The challenges Rezwana faced are the same ones endured by hundreds of shipwreck victims, who suffer as a result of increasingly cruel and inhumane Greek and European policies. Meanwhile, shipwrecks &#8211; and deaths &#8211; continue to be counted almost daily.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In Greece, over the past month alone, at least 12 dead bodies have been recovered from five separate shipwrecks, not including the missing: four women, including a minor, in Samos (23\/9), a young woman in Kos (27\/9), four people &#8211; two women and two children &#8211; in Kos (15\/10), a man in Gavdos (16\/10), and two people &#8211; a man and a woman &#8211; in Samos (21\/10).<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We cannot allow death in avoidable shipwrecks to become normalised. Ensuring safe and legal pathways for people seeking asylum must be made a priority in European policy. Rezwana, through her daily struggle, along with the survivors of shipwrecks, but also the dead, the missing, and their families, all demand justice and reparation. It is our collective responsibility to support them in this fight and to call for an end to the atrocities at the borders.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0f192e6 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\"
