Jad Sakr, Save the Children’s Country Director in Lebanon, said,

“We are incredibly saddened by the tragic news. Our heartfelt thoughts and prayers go out to the family of the baby girl at this difficult time.

في بعض الأحيان ، كل ما تتمناه هو امتلاك القدرة على إخبار العالم ما يدور في ذهنك، عندما تتنحى الألقاب والأسماء جانباً وعندما لا يهم من أكون أو من أي بقعة في العالم أتيت.

في اليوم العالمي للمرأة أكتب بإسمي وباسم صديقاتي وفتيات مجتمعي.

Sometimes, it doesn’t matter who you are. It doesn’t matter what your name is, or where you are in this world. Sometimes, all you want is to be able to tell the world something you always wanted to say.

I write today,* on International Women’s Day, to say something on behalf of my friends, on behalf of girls in my community, on behalf of myself.
