Daesh used the images of drowned toddler Aylan Kurdi to warn refugees fleeing to Europe in the latest issue of its English magazine Dabiq, AFP reports.
Under the headline of “The danger of abandoning Dural-Islam,” the militant group said those fleeing violence in Libya and Syria were committing a “dangerous major sin”.
“Sadly some Syrians and Libyans are willing to risk the lives and souls of those whom they are responsible to raise… sacrificing many of them during the dangerous trip to the lands of the war-waging crusaders,” the article said.
Global outcry erupted after photos emerged of three-year-old Aylan’s body washed up on the shores of a Turkish beach last week.
