Athens, March 3 (RHC)-- In the Mediterranean, a child has died, and another was hospitalized, after a boat with dozens of refugees capsized off the coast of Lesbos, Greece.  Another 46 refugees were rescued from the boat. 

Over the weekend, a group of some 150 Lesbos residents tried to prevent a boat with refugees, mostly families and children, from disembarking, and set fire to a disused migrant center.  This comes as Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said on Monday that Greek soldiers had killed two refugees and severely wounded a third person. 

Turkey loosened restrictions on its border with Greece this weekend, prompting thousands of refugees to head toward the border.
