The migrants landed by boat on a beach near Kaloi Limenes.

The group, who mostly say they are from Sudan and Egypt, includes a woman and six children.

After the process of registration and identification is complete, the migrants are expected to be transferred to a facility in Iraklio.

Elsewhere, Rhodes police found 33 migrants, among them 12 were women and 13 children, on a beach in the island’s southeast.

They also located the body of a man nearby. Port authorities have initiated a preliminary investigation and have ordered an autopsy.
