The body of a child was discovered on Tuesday afternoon near the Jetée des Huttes pier in Grevelingen, in Northern France, according to the newspaper La Voix du Nord.
The body may belong to the Syrian boy from a family residing in Brussels who went missing in the North Sea on Saturday, according to the news outlet. Fishermen were the ones who noticed the body.
On Saturday afternoon, three children got into trouble in the North Sea. Two managed to return to the shore on their own, but the third child was missing without a trace. A large search operation was conducted, but it yielded no results.
The three children are members of the same Syrian family residing in Brussels.
