"4-Year-Old Gaza Boy Receives Second Chance Half a World Away"

Four-year-old Omar Abu Kuwaik from Gaza lost his arm and family in an Israeli airstrike, but was brought to the United States for medical treatment and a prosthetic arm through the efforts of a medical charity. His aunt, who accompanied him, had to leave her own family behind in Gaza. Omar's trauma is evident as he struggles with the loss and his new reality, but he's receiving care and support in the U.S. from organizations like the Global Medical Relief Fund and Shriners Children’s Hospital.
