However, at the moment, the g.irl is not as lucky as her brother, when her health deteriorates and there is a possibility of having to lose a leg.

The Guardian reported that by the time the rescue team was taken out, the younger brother was safe, but his sister was seriously injured. Police Rahal, one of the people who saved the g.irl, said that because of the lack of specialized rescue equipment, they had to use many methods such as hacksaws and car tire jacks to save her. However, during the rescue, an earthquake continued to come, the house was in danger of completely collapsing. But fortunately, the g.irl was successfully rescued.

The doctor said that the situation is very serious and she may not be able to walk as before. If the situation does not improve in the future, the doctor will have to remove my legs. At the same time, police chief Rahal also confirmed that the g.irl and her brother were the only ones in the family who escaped. Both their father and mother have passed away. After being discharged from the hospital, the uncle will adopt 2 children.
