A 36-year-old mother and one of her three children were found dead, while her husband, with a video he posted on the internet, appealed to the authorities to intensify the efforts. "We know and we are sorry," she said.
The lifeless body of the 36-year-old mother and her one-year-old child was found by Turkish authorities on Friday afternoon on the banks of the river Evros in the village of Saclimuselim, opposite Regio in the Municipality of Didymoteicho, Turkish media report. The fate of the other two children remains unknown.
Authorities have been searching for the 36-year-old and her three children, who have been missing since Thursday morning, when the boat they were trying to cross the Evros capsized on Thursday. Hatice's husband, Murat Akzabai, and four other people managed to reach the shore.

My wife and my three children, aged one, four and six, went missing in the river. As a father, I beg the Greek people and the Greek authorities. "Please do not stop the search and rescue operation."
