She was taken on a donkey ( yes a donkey) to Nakkoura , and from there they had to hitch hike to Tyre. By the time they got there she had lost all her blood. She will not make it , the doctors say. she was wounded in the leg and had she been able to reach the hospital sooner , she would have been fine. But due to the fact she bleeded for so long, her brain was damaged and she is now considered clinically dead. Mohamad is not related to samira, but he reached the hospital in Tyre today too. Hewas with his dad on their motorcycle when some pilot decided to see if he can get them. He did get them : the father is now in the hospital in a critical condition : he doesn't remember his own name. Mohamad , 11 , will not die , but he lost both his legs."
