Omran may not have died in Aleppo this morning. But many more Omrans did

Reports that five-year-old Omran Daqneesh died overnight in air strikes on east Aleppo appear to be false - but rescue workers say at least five children and 17 people in total lost their lives 

Five-year-old Omran Daqneesh, whose image was widely shared after he was pulled from the rubble of an air strike in August, appears not to have died in overnight strikes on east Aleppodespite several rumours in Syrian news and on social media he has been killed. 

A local Syrian civil defence service rescue worker and representative from medical charity Sams both said that the child was not identified among last night’s victims. His family have not yet been reached for confirmation of their safety. 

Rescue workers operating in the besieged area say as many as 50 people were killed in heavy bombing in al-Qarterji neighbourhood in the early hours of Monday morning. The list of the dead they released included two six-week-old babies, and six more children aged under eight. Fourteen of those killed were reportedly from the same family.

LifeMalala Yousafzai was born in the Swat district of northwestern Pakistan, where her father was a school owner and was active in educational issues. After having blogged for the BBC since 2009 about her experiences during the Taliban's growing influence in the region, in 2012 the Taliban attempted to assassinate Malala Yousafzai on the bus home from school. She survived, but underwent several operations in the UK, where she lives today. In addition to her schooling, she continues her work for the right of girls to education.

Work
Much of the world's population, especially in poor countries, is made up of children and young people. To achieve a peaceful world, it is crucial that the rights of children and young people be respected. Injustices perpetrated against children contribute to the spread of conflicts to future generations. Already at eleven years of age Malala Yousafzai fought for girls' right to education. After having suffered an attack on her life by Taliban gunmen in 2012, she has continued her struggle and become a leading advocate of girls' rights.
