The Story of Omran Daqneesh

Omran Daqneesh was born in Aleppo, Syria, in 2011. His father, Muhammad, was a construction worker, and his mother, Roua, was a housewife. Omran had two older sisters, Aya and Hala.

In 2012, the Syrian Civil War broke out. The war had a devastating impact on Aleppo, and the Daqneesh family was forced to flee their home. They lived in a series of temporary shelters before finally settling in a small apartment in the besieged city.

On August 17, 2016, Omran's home was hit by a missile. The missile destroyed the apartment and killed Omran's older sister, Hala. Omran and his parents were injured, but they were eventually rescued by rebel fighters.

A photo of Omran, covered in blood and dust, was taken by a rebel fighter and posted on social media. The photo quickly went viral, and it helped to raise awareness of the plight of Syrian civilians.

In the wake of the photo's release, Omran and his family were evacuated from Syria and brought to the United States. They were given medical care and a new home, and Omran was able to start a new life in a safe and peaceful country.
