土耳其7.8級大地震,在敘利亞阿勒頗(Aleppo)地震廢墟出生的女嬰,被救出時還連著臍帶,是包括父母兄姊等一家7口唯一的倖存者,被官方命名為「Aya」(意思:奇蹟)。雖然事後有很多人表示有意領養,但局方已決定由她的阿姨及姨長帶回家照顧。
英國廣播公司(BBC)報道,女嬰Aya獲救送院進行治療照護後,情況良好。院方對Aya細心照顧,並緊慎處理Aya的領養事情,院方經DNA鑑定確認,證實一名女性確實是Aya的血親阿姨,決定將Aya交由阿姨一家帶回家養育。
「奇蹟BB」已改名為Afraa
女嬰的姨長Khalil al-Sawadi日前帶同3日前才出生的親生女兒前往醫院迎接Aya。Khalil al-Sawadi說:「(Aya)她是我的其中一個孩子了」並承諾會將Aya視為己出好好照顧。此外,Aya亦有了新的名字「Afraa」,這是她已故母親的名字。
