EUROPE'S borders are as deadly as ever, human rights activists told the Morning Star today on the seventh anniversary of the death of the two-year-old Syrian-Kurdish boy Alan Kurdi.
On the evening of September 2 2015, 16 people, including Alan and many of his family members, bordered a small boat in Turkey with the hope of finding safety on the Greek island of Kos.
The family had twice been forced to flee their home city of Kobane, northern Syria, after it was attacked by the terrorist group Isis.
