Heartrending photo shows charity worker carrying cradling drowned baby in his arms, but dead

                          Photograph shows drowned baby being cradled by charity worker between Libya and Italy
 The child's lifeless body was pulled from the sea on Friday off the south coast of Italy after the capsizing of a boat which had set off from Sabratha in Libya the night before. German rescuers released the picture in a bid to persuade European authorities to ensure safe passage to migrants, after hundreds drowned in the Mediterranean in a matter of days. The photograph shows the baby being cradled in the arms of a rescuer known only as Martin, who described how the 'sun shone into its bright, motionless eyes'.
