Migrant truck crash kills 22 in Turkey 1 SHARES Share it! Turkish television pictures showed the stricken wreckage of the vehicle, which was reduced to burned-out metal by the impact of the crash with corpses strewn beside. Last week, eight migrants were found drowned off the Karaburun district, also in Izmir province, after their boat capsized. The trips of migrants towards Greece are often organised by smugglers who demand hundreds and sometimes thousands of dollars per person to sort out the logistics. After the disaster off Karaburun, four suspected smugglers were arrested following evidence given by an Iraqi who survived, Anadolu said.
