Mira’s mother, Rana Al-Sundy, was distraught and crying after her daughter was injured in an Israeli air strike
Rafah is at Gaza’s southern edge by the border with Egypt. It’s a so-called safer area. But today there was an explosion in a residential neighbourhood in Rafah.
People used their bare hands to pull survivors from the rubble.
A little girl was rushed to the Al Najjar hospital by one rescuer. She had burns on her face, and a severe injury in her back, which was bleeding. Mahmoud Bassam, who’s been working with the BBC, filmed video of her.
A short while later he found a woman outside the hospital looking for her child.
Rana Al-Sundy said her daughter was in her neighbour’s house when it was “bombed”.
“There’s nothing left anymore. I don’t know where my daughter is. I want to see her,” she said, distraught and crying.
Mahmoud showed her the footage he’d taken and from it she identified her seven-year-old girl Mira. By then Mira had been moved to another hospital for treatment.
We haven’t been able to reach them to find out if Rana found her, but Mahmoud believes it’s likely she did.
