Heart-breaking photo of Syrian child goes viral
This story is not so light-hearted. A photojournalist called Nadia AbuShaban posted a photo on her Twitter account of a Syrian child in the war-shattered country. The child thought the camera that the photojournalist held was a gun and held her hands up in surrender. The photo has been retweeted more than 10,000 times.
In the photo, the young girl raises her hands as high as she can and begs for her life to be spared with a fearful expression that moved thousands after the photo went viral on the Internet.
The photo shows that children in Syria are living in the shadow of weapons and guns all the time.
