Syria Earthquake Anniversary - Idlib
Afra, the baby girl born under the rubble a year ago during the Syria-Turkey earthquake, is now thriving. After spending ten hours trapped following the disaster in Jindires, northern Syria, she lost her parents and four siblings. Rescued with her umbilical cord still attached, Afra now lives with her aunt and her aunt’s husband, who has seven children. Celebrating her first birthday, Afra is in good health under their care.. On February 2, 2024, the Syrian Civil Defense, in partnership with artist Salam Hamid, launched an initiative to paint murals on walls in areas impacted by the earthquake that occurred on February 6, 2023, affecting southern Turkey and northern Syria. Recently, Salam Hamid created a poignant mural on a school wall in Jindires, capturing the Syrian experience during the disaster. The artwork portrays a child trapped under rubble, surrounded by debris, with the phrase "Syria Earthquake" written beside it. Photo by Bilal Alhammoud/Middle East Images/ABACAPRESS.COM
