LONDON: The British government likely to accommodate 15,000 Syrian refugees and launch military action against people traffickers, a report said.

British Prime Minister David Cameron said that he was deeply moved by images of three-year-old Syrian toddler Aylan Kurdi, found dead on a Turkish beach.

Cameron now intends to expand Britain’s vulnerable persons relocation programme, take in around 15,000 refugees and launch military action against people traffickers, the report said.
