The bodies of two Dublin teenagers who died in Greece over the weekend will be repatriated today.

Andrew O'Donnell and Max Wall died in separate incidents while on a sixth year holiday in Ios.

Post-mortem examinations on the bodies of the two Irish teenagers concluded yesterday in Athens.

The classmates who had just completed their exams at St Michael’s College in south Dublin, were two of around 90 students from the same school who had gone to the Greek island to celebrate completing their exams last week.

Max fell ill on Sunday near the port on the island and was rushed to hospital where he was pronounced dead.
