A Syrian baby girl born under rubble after Monday’s 7.8 magnitude earthquake has been rescued alive though her mother and all other members of the family died.

Images went viral of a Turkish toddler, two-year-old Mohammad, showing a rescue worker giving him water in a bottle cap while he was still trapped under rubble with his eyes beaming with hope and betraying the pain. He was safely rescued.

Rescue workers fought back tears when they pulled out two baby girls, one only two-month-old, after breaking through heaps of concrete.

And many people smiled when a toddler was found sleeping under a collapsed building, oblivious to the disaster.

The earthquake in Turkiye and Syria has left thousands of stories both heart-wrenching and heartening.

In Syria’s Jinderis, residents digging through a collapsed building discovered a crying infant whose mother appears to have given birth to her while buried underneath the rubble from this week’s devastating earthquake.

The girl’s umbilical cord was still connected to her mother, Afraa Abu Hadiya, who was dead, locals said. The baby was the only member of her family to survive from the building collapse Monday.

In the same town, a young girl was pulled out alive from under the rubble of her home by the White Helmet rescue group.

Moreover, a one-year-old baby was found alive in the Turkish province of Sanliurfa on Wednesday, after 53 hours trapped under a collapsed five-storey building, Anadolu Agency reported.

In another location, a video went viral on social media where two sisters can be seen trapped under the rubble.

The video was shared with a caption: “I don’t think I’ve ever cried in all my life the way I have watching this. How do you even recover from this experience?”
