Three fishermen died off the coast of Ermioni in the eastern Peloponnese on Tuesday morning after their boat capsized.

The two Egyptians aged 32 and 55, and a 56-year-old Greek, were part of a crew of five. The other two fishermen were rescued by colleagues working nearby and have been taken to a local medical center for tests.

Port authorities in Ermioni are investigating the cause of the accident amid what other fishermen said were calm conditions.
