The family of British-born boy, Julian Cadman, missing since Thursday's terror attacks in Spain, has confirmed he was among those killed.
The seven-year-old, who had dual UK-Australian nationality, died after a van was deliberately crashed into pedestrians on Las Ramblas on Thursday.
He was separated from his mother, who was badly injured and she is said to be in a serious condition in hospital.
Julian's father had flown in from Australia to search for his son.
His relatives said: "Julian was a much loved and adored member of our family. As he was enjoying the sights of Barcelona with his mother, Julian was sadly taken from us.
The Spanish missing persons bureau had earlier confirmed his death.
A statement released through the bureau said: "Julian Cadman's family has told us he is unfortunately one of the victims of the attack and has asked us to thank all the people who have spread the news.
"In these very unjust, hard and painful moments, we accompany Julian's family and friends. Rest in peace."
