Dashty Jamal Secretary of International federation of Iraqi refugees-IFIR has said The EU and UK<\/span>
\ngovernment is responsible for this tragedy. Refugees are dying in many tragic ways trying to cross<\/span>
\nsea and land in search of a better life. Many refugees have no choice but to flee war and insecurity.<\/span>
\nThis tragedy is the direct result of the anti-refugee policies of both the UK and EU.<\/span>
\nWe ask freedom loving people and human rights organisations to stand up against these policies and<\/span>
\nfor there to be no borders\u201d. He also said that after this tragedy the IFIR contacted the police in order to<\/span>
\nfind out information regarding the identities of those on the truck. The police said it\u2019s important for<\/span>
\nthem to first move the bodies to a secure place and then to investigate further. Once they have<\/span>
\nidentified the bodies they will be in touch with IFIR.<\/span><\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
