Description :
Samia spent four months in total sadness and desperation. Fortunately, she could get a prosthesis that brought back her smile while she’s playing with her friends in the neighborhood. “We managed to register Samia at the school after getting a prosthesis that enables her to have a normal life”, Samia’s mother said happily.
ICRC website photo gallery, 02.12.2016: "Yemen: Disability is not an obstacle. Thousands of people have lost limbs in Yemen since the conflict started in 2015. In fact, reports indicate that an estimated 6,000 people have been left disabled – most as the result of a blast, a mine or sustaining a gunshot."
