The Egyptian suspects involved in the Adriana shipwreck, which occurred off the Greek town of Pylos on June 14, 2023, will go on trial in Greece. The incident resulted in the deaths of over 600 people, including men, women, and children. The nine accused Egyptians face up to life imprisonment if convicted on multiple criminal charges, including facilitating illegal entry into Greece as alleged members of a criminal organization.
