A doctor who treated the older brother of the Syrian boy pictured in Aleppo after an airstrike struck his home, has given an interview in which he says the brother has died of his wounds. Ali Daqneesh, 10, was wounded in the strike on his home last Wednesday, as were his three siblings and both parents. A general view shows the site of last Wednesday's airstrike where five-year-old Omran Daqneesh was injured in the rebel-held al-Qaterji neighbourhood of Aleppo. "His general condition was unwell because he stayed behind in the rubble for a long time," unlike his brother, five-year-old Omran. The younger boy was pictured in the back of an ambulance after being pulled from the rubble, with an expression of incomprehension on his dust- and blood-caked face.
