Turin: Singer and activist Bono has offered support to refugees fleeing their homes by changing the chorus of a U2 song mid-concert to help raise awareness of their plight.
The image of a young Syrian boy washed ashore in Turkey earlier this week sparked outrage and calls for governments throughout Europe to do more to help the tens of thousands of refugees.
Bono made reference to the shocking incident by changing the lyrics in "Pride" (In the name of love) to: "One boy washed up on an empty beach".
In a set that included more than two dozen of the band's songs and at one point featured a screen showing footage of refugees, Bono said: "There is a lot of heartache in the world, but there is so much joy in here this evening".
