| 2015-11-24 | |
The toddler was identified as a 4-year-old Syrian girl named Sena after a survivor, Nirvan Hassan, identified her, according to the Hurriyet Daily News. Nine bodies have so far been recovered from the lost craft, and the corpses have been sent to the bustling provincial capital Mugla for an appointment with Dr. Quincy, Hurriyet added. "When she got on the boat, her mother would continuously call out Sena. That's when I learned her name," the Zaman newspaper quoted another survivor as recalling of the incident. The drowning death of Sena mirrors the death of 3-year-old Kurdish toddler Alan Kurdi, whose body also washed up on ...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire.... 's Aegean coast after a boat carrying him alongside his family and 15 other migrants sank in September. A picture of Kurdi's limp, lifeless body circulating on social media became a symbol of Syrian refugees fleeing violence in their homeland. | |

| #1 It could mention that the Kurdi's had been in turkey for 2 years before their dad bought a lifeboat and got some of his family killed for a chance at western benefits. |
