Syria conflict: Sisters 'scarred for life' by war
Not scarred by war, but by Assad, a bomb wasn't just dropped, but dropped by his airforce.
' "There are lots of Syrians who need treatment and can't get it."
And he prays quietly for Rahaf's recovery, and for all those suffering without help.'
From two years ago*, when the narrative that this is a civil war rather than a government assault hadn't solidified. The failure to play is reminiscent of Iraqis under American bombing:
'This is the story of one Syrian family who survived government shelling and reached safety - and treatment - in Jordan, when so many others have not.
"They are not the same children that they were before. They used to play with other kids ... but now they don't like to go out."
"We thank God that we were saved," says Abu Abdul Malik. "There are still people under the rubble - whose bodies have not been collected. We pray for them." '
