Farah is a 13-year old Syrian girl based in Abu al-Dhuhur district in Idlib’s eastern countryside. Back in her hometown in the village of al-Rayhan in Eastern Ghouta, Farah suffered a severe injury when a shell hit her house leaving her with an amputated leg. After their displacement to Idlib’s southern countryside, her father was killed in another bombing in Abu al-Dhuhur.
After Farah’s injury, surgeons did their best to restore the severed part of her leg. However, this left her with a shorter leg, which became an obstacle to her movement.
