After strong pressure from the country’s creditors, the SYRIZA-led government has agreed to the complete abolition of the special value-added tax status for all Greek islands, even the remotest ones.

A detailed list of the islands in each category will be determined by a joint ministerial decision. The government had also pledged benefits to islanders with very low incomes but it is not clear now whether it will do so.

Unconfirmed, but heard a man is missing at sea off Avithos beach since yesterday afternoon.

Bit of a mystery this one! This guy was supposed to have flown a private aircraft out of the airport, but did not complete the required paperwork. Someone else flew the plane and had to make an emergency landing! The original pilot then hired a boat and said he was going to Dias Island and hasn't been heard of since!
This is what I heard from a Greek, so something could be lost in translation and I cannot vouch for the truth of the story.

This sounds like a beginning of a Dan Brown Novel. Anymore news about the mysterious missing pilot?

Νεκρός άνδρας εντοπίστηκε το βράδυ της Τρίτης σε χωράφι στα Σβορωνάτα. Το μακάβριο εύρημα ανακάλυψαν βρετανοί που έτυχε να περνούν από εκεί με τον σκύλο τους.
