The secretary-general of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), Iyad Madani, said the body of the drowned Syrian child, Aylan Kurdi, which was washed ashore, has stunned everyone.
In an appeal to the international community, Madani said: “Aylan’s lifeless body on a Turkish beach reminds us of the extent of the tragedy the refugees are facing.”
The Syrian refugees who perished in the Mediterranean Sea or died of asphyxiation inside a truck in Austria did not include one person responsible for the outbreak of the Syrian crisis or those behind the failure to stop the crisis, Madani said.
Meanwhile, British Prime Minister David Cameron says his country will take 20,000 Syrian refugees from camps near the war-torn country’s borders over the next five years.
