Among the most significant trade and marine centers since the ancient times near Methoni at the first leg of the Peloponnese peninsula in Greece, the island of Sapienza has been the witness of many shipwrecks as a navy passage connecting Italy to the Middle East.

Rescuers extended their search scope to some 1,300 kilometers along the

unaccounted for after a Chinese passenger ship capsized on Monday night.
