A three-year-old Yemeni girl who was seriously injured by a mortar shell has been saved by a four-hour operation carried out by the UAE's advanced surgical team.
The child, Sumaiya, was at her family home in the At Tuhayat District of Hodeidah when it was hit by the shell and she suffered serious injuries to the abdomen and intestines, Wam reported.
According to Dr Sultan Al-Kaabi, head of the team, which operates as part of the Saudi-led Arab Coalition, Sumaiya was swiftly taken to the field hospital currently operating on Yemen’s Red Sea Coast. She had suffered cutaneous wounds from pieces of shrapnel and was in a serious condition.
During four hours of surgery, all of the shrapnel fragments were removed and her condition was stabilised.
She will now be provided with medical treatment until she fully recovers.
Sumaiya's father later told Wam that he was grateful to the medical team for its prompt response and for its expertise which, he said, had saved his daughter's life.

What are NFTs?
Are non-fungible tokens a currency, asset, or a licensing instrument? Arnab Das, global market strategist EMEA at Invesco, says they are mix of all of three.
You can buy, hold and use NFTs just like US dollars and Bitcoins. “They can appreciate in value and even produce cash flows.”
However, while money is fungible, NFTs are not. “One Bitcoin, dollar, euro or dirham is largely indistinguishable from the next. Nothing ties a dollar bill to a particular owner, for example. Nor does it tie you to to any goods, services or assets you bought with that currency. In contrast, NFTs confer specific ownership,” Mr Das says.
This makes NFTs closer to a piece of intellectual property such as a work of art or licence, as you can claim royalties or profit by exchanging it at a higher value later, Mr Das says. “They could provide a sustainable income stream.”
This income will depend on future demand and use, which makes NFTs difficult to value. “However, there is a credible use case for many forms of intellectual property, notably art, songs, videos,” Mr Das says.
