An incredible video has been released showing medics in Syria
performing an emergency caesarean on a woman whose unborn baby has been
injured in a missile strike in Aleppo. The video captures the moment
doctors pull the baby girl from the womb with a piece of shrapnel
implanted in her tiny brow.
Medics frantically work to revive the lifeless baby,
rigorously rubbing her limp body and clearing her airways, until she can
take her first breath.
The healthcare workers from Aleppo City Medical Council, a non-profit
medical service in the city, can be heard rejoicing when the newborn
makes her first whimpers minutes later.
She then breaks out into a full cry after they successfully remove the debris from her head, leaving a finger-sized wound.
The miraculous video was posted on Facebook on Friday with both mother
and baby said to be recovering well in hospital. Her three other
children, who were also said to be injured in the missile strike, also
survived.
