Graphic photos of a Syrian toddler who died alongside his brother and mother on a dangerous track across the Mediterranean, and whose body ended up at one of Turkey’s most luxurious tourist resorts have stirred uproar and fueled the refugee and migrant crisis debate.

In the photo, the dead boy lying face down on the beach in Bodrum, Turkey, is three-year-old Aylan Kurdi. His brother, five-year-old Galip, and their mother drowned as well. The family had reportedly fled the Syrian town of Kobani on the Turkish border, an area which has seen heavy fighting between Islamic State militants and Kurdish forces, and anti-IS coalition airstrikes.

I'm crying, the poor baby RIP angel
To think this is what it took for people to start showing compassion to these refugees, hopefully now European countries will protect them instead of beating them and refusing them entry
