A baby evacuated from Gaza lost an eye and most of his family in the war

When Mostafa Qadoura was a week old, an Israeli strike on his home in Gaza launched his crib into the air, sent shrapnel into his right eye that damaged it beyond repair, and killed one of his brothers. Evacuated to Egypt weeks later when the hospital treating him came under siege by the Israeli army, Mostafa has since grown into a smiling and active 10-month-old with chubby cheeks. But he still faces huge challenges. His mother and other brother were killed in a separate Israeli strike. He needs a series of surgeries for his artificial eye. And it’s unclear whether he will return to Gaza before the war is over.
