The girl who became a symbol of the plight of children in Gaza

Her bruised eyes became one of the enduring images of the plight of children during the Israeli bombardment of Gaza.

Naama Abu Al-Foul had been playing in the street in Gaza City when the blast from a missile threw her into the air; the two-year-old sustained her panda-like eye injuries when she landed on her face, suffering severe concussion.Around a fortnight later, and during a 72-hour ceasefire between Hamas and Israel, a team from Channel 4 News found the little girl recovering.More than 400 children are among the 1,800 Palestinians killed during Israel’s Operation Protection Edge.(independent.co.uk)Bakudaily.Az
