The dead have been identified as Saywan Salih, a 30-year-old from Sardasht in Iranian Kurdistan, and Shkar Mohammed, a 31-year-old from Qaladze, a town in the Sulaimani province of the Kurdistan Region. "After their families informed our office of their whereabouts, we discovered them after two days of search by our representatives in Greece and Turkey," Ari Jalal, head of The Summit Foundation for Refugee and Displaced Affairs (Lutka) said on Wednesday. "They have died in two separate incidents." Salih's body was discovered on the Mohammed's body was "discovered in a dense forest near the Greek port city of Thessaloniki," where he died "due to breathing problems," a medical report said.
