GRAPHIC CONTENT: Heart breaking Photo a tiny body of a young Syrian refugee washed up on Turkish beach after his family tried to reach Europe

Tragedy of the tiny boy who symbolises the desperation of thousands: Body of drowned


















The unnamed boy is just one of almost 3,000 migrants who have already died this year in the Mediterranean 


The fate of his family is unknown, but it is believed his is one of at least 11 people who lost their lives when two boats capsized off the Turkish coast.

A vessel carrying 16 people reportedly sank in international waters after heading for the Greek island of Kos from the holiday resort. Only four people could be rescued.

Hours later, a second ship carrying six people sank - killing a woman and three children. Two migrants in life jackets were able to make it to shore half-conscious.
