A baby girl has been delivered from the womb of her mother who lay dying from injuries sustained in an Israeli airstrike on the southern city of Rafah.
“The mother was 30 weeks pregnant and doctors at Kuwaiti hospital performed an emergency caesarean section in a bid to save her,” reports said.
“She was born in severe respiratory distress. She was quickly brought from the Kuwaiti hospital to the nursery of Tal Al-Sultan Hospital,” said Dr Mohammad Salameh, head of the neonatal intensive care unit at Emirati Maternity Hospital.
“This respiratory distress syndrome is caused by premature birth. This child should have been in her mother’s womb at this time, but she was deprived of this right,” he added.
The little girl has been named after her mother Sabreen. But even if she survives, she was born an orphan.
For the moment, she is in an incubator in the Rafah hospital with the words, “The baby of the martyr Sabreen Al-Sakani” written on tape across her chest.
The baby’s paternal grandmother Mirvat al-Sakani has said she will take care of her.
