Live updates: Netanyahu to contact the UN General Assembly while Trump promises to block the annexation of the West Bank
Majd Alshaghnobi was waiting to recover flour, like so many children in northern Gaza, when Israeli reception flats torn his face in February 2024, inflicting a jaw injury and the lower mouth.
“Someone had dragged me and took me safe,” said the 15 -year -old to CNN.
Palestinian doctors prevented her before sewing his injuries in a kitchen because there were not enough operating rooms at the Baptist hospital in Al -Ahli in Gaza City – in an improvisation scene reproduced through the band. Majd then traveled alone the shaved districts and the military control points before finding his mother in the southern city of Khan Younis.
In July, he became the third child in Gaza to enter the United Kingdom in a private medical evacuation facilitated by the Pure Hope NGO project, with the support of the Gaza Kinder Relief for non-profit.
From the morgue to the operating room: Majd’s fight to smile again
Five months earlier, Majd had left Enclave by Egypt with his mother, Islam Felfel, his younger brother, Nader, 10, and his sister, Rahaf, 7, during a ceasefire.
On Tuesday, Majd underwent facial reconstruction surgery in London, a few days after the British government announced a plan to facilitate the safe arrival of the sick children from Gaza.
But help and medical workers say it is not enough – warning that the MAJD test offers a rare overview of the Horrors of the War of Israel for children in Gaza. According to the UN children’s agency, more than 50,000 children were killed or injured.
