Doctors saved the newborn baby of a woman killed during a recent shelling of Gaza, Agence France-Presse reports.

When doctors at Deir al-Balah Hospital pulled the baby from the womb, her mother Shayma al-Sheikh Qanan, 23, had already died.

"We tried to revive her but she had died on the way to hospital," said Fadi al-Kharti, a doctor at the hospital.

"Then we noticed movement in her stomach, and estimated she was about 36 weeks pregnant."

The baby was named Shayma after her mother.

Al-Sheikh Qanan was at her home in the town of Deir al-Balah, central Gaza, when an Israeli tank shell reduced the building to rubble. Her husband, 27, a journalist, was severely injured.

AFP said the baby was in the intensive care unit at another hospital in Khan Yunis, and was breathing through an oxygen mask.

In the past four weeks, more than 1,100 Palestinians have died, according to Palestinian health organizations. United Nations figures show that most of the casualties are civilians, including more than 230 children and about 120 women.


이스라엘 포격속 출산된 '기적의 아기'

이스라엘의 팔레스타인 가자지구 공격으로 1천명 이상이 숨진 가운데 한 소중한 생명이 기적적으로 세상의 빛을 봤다. 

28일(현지시간) 가자지구 남부 칸유니스의 한 병원에서 치료를 받고 있는 생후 4일 된 팔레스타인 여아는 태어나기도 전에 엄마를 잃었다. 

아기의 엄마인 샤이마 알셰이크 카난(23)은 지난 25일 이스라엘의 폭격으로 집이 무너지면서 건물 잔해에 깔려 숨졌다. 

하지만 의료진이 재빠르게 대처해 뱃속 아기는 목숨을 건질 수 있었다. 

의사인 파디 알카르티는 '새벽 3시에 이스라엘이 포격을 가한 후 임신부가 병원에 실려왔다'며 '임신부를 소생시키려고 노력했지만 병원으로 오는 길에 이미 숨진 상태였다'고 말했다. 

그는 '임신부의 배가 움직이는 것을 보고 임신 36주차 정도 됐으리라 생각했다'고 설명했다.  

숨진 엄마의 몸 속에서 1시간을 버틴 아기는 제왕절개 수술을 통해 비운의 울음을 터뜨렸다. 

아이의 할머니인 미르파트 카난(43)은 '신이 나를 위해서 이 아이를 보호해줬다'며 '나의 딸 샤이마는 죽었지만 새로운 딸을 얻게 됐다'고 말했다. 

아기는 숨진 엄마의 이름을 그대로 물려받았다. 어린 카난은 힘들게 세상 밖으로 나왔지만 아직은 위중한 상태다. 

압델 카리 알바와브 산부인과 의사는 '아이가 심각한 상황에 놓여 있다'며 '산모가 사망한 이후 산소 결핍에 시달렸기 때문에 산소호흡기에 계속 의존해야 한다'고 밝혔다. 그는 '최소 3주간은 지금 같은 상태를 유지해야 할 것'이라고 덧붙였다. 

한 목숨은 기적적으로 살아남았지만 가자지구에서는 연일 포격이 이어지며 대규모 사상자가 발생하고 있다. 

이스라엘의 가자지구 공습과 포격이 이어진 지난 3주 간 숨진 팔레스타인 사망자는 1천명을 넘어섰고 부상자도 6천200여명에 달한다. 

유엔의 집계에 따르면 희생자의 75%가 민간인이며 이 가운데 230명은 어린이, 120명은 여성인 것으로 나타났다. (연합뉴스)
