In a tragic turn of events, a newborn baby from Gaza has passed away after a valiant fight for her life. The baby, named Sabreen al-Sakani, was delivered through a Caesarean section after her mother tragically lost her life in an Israeli airstrike. Doctors worked tirelessly to revive Sabreen using a hand pump to bring air to her lungs, but she sadly succumbed to her injuries after five days of battling to survive.
The devastating news was confirmed by a relative of the girl, who shared their grief on Facebook. Sabreen’s soul, it seems, had made the decision to join her family beyond this world.
The airstrike not only claimed the life of Sabreen’s mother but also her father and three-year-old sister. Miraculously, Sabreen was the sole survivor, remaining nestled in her mother’s womb until she could be rescued.
Despite the efforts of doctors who performed an emergency cesarean section and placed her in an incubator, Sabreen’s condition remained critical. Eventually, her tiny body succumbed to the injuries inflicted upon her.
Tragically, the number of children lost in the ongoing conflict in Gaza continues to rise. According to recent data, a staggering 14,778 children have lost their lives. Among them are thirty children who died due to hunger and acute dehydration.
Over the weekend, another 16 children lost their lives in an Israeli airstrike in the southern Gaza Strip. The target of the attack, according to the Israeli Army, was Hamas fighters and their infrastructure.
