Pope Francis, who was discharged from a Rome hospital Friday nine days after undergoing abdominal surgery, urged European governments to do more to protect people who risk their lives while attempting to find better ones. Coast guard spokesperson Nikos Alexiou said coast guard and private vessels followed the vessel in international waters before it sank. Repeated offers of assistance were rejected in radio communications with the vessel and well as calls made over a loudspeaker, he said.A judicial investigation is underway into the causes of the sinking. Greek officials say the vessel capsized minutes after it lost power, speculating that panic among the passengers may have caused the boat to list and roll over.
