Uncle “Leaves this world to be with my family… Bury me with my dad.”
According to AFP and Reuters on the 26th (local time), baby Sabreen Alou, who was born by caesarean section to a mother who was 30 weeks pregnant on the 21st, died the day before at the Emirates Hospital in Rafah, Gaza Strip.
Muhammad Salama, head of the hospital’s emergency neonatal unit, who was caring for the premature baby, said, “The baby was born with an immature respiratory system and his immune system was very weak, so he eventually died.”
Sabreen al-Sakhani, a refugee from Rafah, the southernmost part of the Gaza Strip, arrived at the emergency room of Kuwait Hospital in Rafah in critical condition after suffering head and abdominal wounds from an Israeli airstrike on the night of the 21st, and died shortly after giving birth via cesarean section. .
The baby, who was born prematurely weighing 1.4 kg, was named ‘Sabrine’ after her mother and was later transferred to the Emirates Hospital in Rafah, where she was treated in an incubator.
According to the Gaza Strip’s Ministry of Health, a total of 19 people, including Al-Sakhani’s husband and four-year-old daughter, were killed when two houses were hit by an Israeli airstrike on Rafah on the night of the 21st.
Allu’s uncle Rami Al-Sheikh said, “Allu passed away to be with his family. Today, we buried Allu’s body in his father Shukri’s grave.”
However, the international community, including the United States, is dissuading Israel, saying that if a street battle breaks out in Rafah, where about 1.4 million refugees are gathered, a huge loss of life is expected.
