🧵 Today a 7-month pregnant woman arrived at the Srebrenica wartime hospital, in labour. After 3 previous miscarriages, this was her fourth pregnancy. A small baby girl was brought into the world, weighing 1500g (3.3 pounds).

As it is a harsh winter (it is in the minuses outside) and she is a premature baby, for her to have a chance of surviving she would need an incubator, something which a normal society has.

Someone has to be there non-stop to warm up this little baby. They take turns. The situation has become even more difficult, as the mother has no milk. We are having to artificially feed her.
