Toddler cheated death after her head was crushed into ground, rock by Russian bombing
A little Syrian girl miraculously survived after her head was trapped under heavy debris of her family's home, which was collapsed in a Russian air strike.
The toddler's head was crushed between the ground and a piece of rock while her body remained under the debris of the building, which was hit by Russian jet fighters.
The incident occured on Wednesday, as Russian war planes were supposedly bombing Daesh targets in the province's Hureytan district. The 3-year-old writhed in agony until she was pulled out from under the debris of the building safely.
She was able to stay alive despite long hours under the debris. Residents working frantically managed to remove the debris that squeezed her body.
The injured girl was rushed to a nearby hospital by civilians, where she remains in the intensive care ward of the hospital for further treatment.
Russian air forces have been bombing busy residential areas under the guise of counter-terror attacks since early October 2015.
However, there is no sign of Daesh in the northern Syrian provinces including Aleppo, Latakia and Idlib.
Intelligence reports say Russia's strikes only hit opponents of the Syrian regime, which has killed 400,000 people over the five years of civil war in Syria.
