Harrowing pictures of a Syrian boy sitting in an ambulance after being rescued from a building which has been destroyed by an airstrike in Aleppo have been released by activists.
The boy, who has been identified as five-year-old Omar Daqneesh was treated for head wounds last night.
A video shows the boy being carried out of a damaged building by a medic and then placed on a seat in the back of an ambulance, covered in dust and with a blood-covered face.
It is not clear what happened to the boy’s family.
A doctor in Aleppo, Osama Abu Al-Ezz, told the Associated Press that the boy in the ambulance was brought to a hospital known as M10 following the attack on Qaterji with head wounds, but no brain injury, and was later discharged.
