Gaza Mother's Plea: Italian Government Steps In After Airstrike Kills Nine Children
Gaza bombing: Italian government responds to plea for surviving child A devastating Israeli airstrike in Khan Younis, Gaza, claimed the lives of nine children belonging to Alaa al-Najjar. Her eleventh child, Adam, remains critically injured. The incident has sparked international outrage and concern. "Alaa al-Najjar is a mother who has lost nine children," explains Fabio Tonacci, the la Repubblica correspondent reporting from the scene. "Only one remains, Adam, 11 years old, and he too is in danger of dying from his wounds." In a desperate plea for help, Adam's uncle, Ali, reached out to the Italian newspaper la Repubblica. His appeal didn't go unheard. The Italian government has since responded, initiating the process to transport the family to Italy for treatment at the Bambino Gesù children's hospital in Rome. An aircraft has been identified in Jordan to facilitate the transfer. The video footage shows the destruction caused by the bombing and the family's heartbreaking situation at the Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis. The hospital lacks the necessary resources to provide adequate care for Adam and his critically injured father, Hamdi. While the family's grief is immense, the Italian government's swift action offers a glimmer of hope for Adam's survival and a testament to international solidarity in times of crisis.
