A baby girl who was delivered from her dying mother’s womb in a Gaza hospital following an Israeli airstrike has herself died after several days, Reuters reports.
The baby had been named Rouh (Soul). Her mother, Sabreen Al-Sakani, was seriously injured when an Israeli strike hit the family home in Rafah, the southernmost city in the besieged Gaza Strip.
Sabreen, who was 30 weeks pregnant, was rushed to the Emirati hospital in Rafah. She succumbed to her wounds but doctors were able to save the baby, delivering her by Caesarean section.
However, the baby suffered respiratory problems and a weak immune system, said Doctor Mohammad Salama, head of the emergency neo-natal unit at Emirati Hospital, who had been caring for Rouh.
