Gaza Baby Saved After Mother Killed in Strike

In a tragic yet miraculous event in Gaza, doctors at Al-Awda Hospital delivered a baby boy from the womb of Ola Adnan Harb al-Kurd, who was killed in an Israeli airstrike on her home in the Nuseirat refugee camp. Ola, nine months pregnant, was brought to the hospital 'almost dead' and could not be saved, but an emergency cesarean section allowed her baby to be delivered. The newborn was initially in critical condition but has since been stabilized and is now in an incubator at Al-Aqsa Hospital. This incident was part of intensified Israeli military operations in Gaza, which have led to numerous casualties, including the deaths of three women and a child in the same strike that killed Ola. The ongoing conflict has severely impacted access to medical care, making childbirth perilous in the region. The baby's survival offers a glimmer of hope amid the extensive devastation and loss of life.
