A court in Turkey has jailed two Syrians to four years in jail over the death of Alan Kurdi and four others, according to the BBC.

Alan was the Syrian three-year-old whose photograph, lying dead on a Turkish beach, focused world attention on the refugee crisis in September.

Mufawaka Alabash and Asem Alfrhad were convicted of people smuggling, but acquitted of causing death "through deliberate negligence".

Thousands of refugees and migrants arrive daily in Greece from Turkey.

Alan's five-year-old brother Galib and his mother Rihan also drowned when the boat they were on sank during an attempted crossing to the Greek island of Kos.
