“In fact, we have the largest evacuation of the wounded children who come to the United States today, S said Sosebee Brittany Kleinpetter from Channel 2.
Sosebee welcomed Yassin and his family in the afternoon of the Sunday afternoon of a crowd of metro Atlanta supporters.

Yassin not only loses his legs, but also lost his father in a bombardment. The 12 -year -old and his brothers are experiencing one day or every day.
Sosebee added, “They all have different malnutrition,” he added.
Yassin’s doctor, who did not want to be defined for security and security reasons, shared that the 12 -year -old child would start treatment this week and tried to get a prosthesis.
Through a translator, Yassin’s mother shared this idea about the care of her son.
Almasry, “I am very happy as a mother to have this opportunity to be treated, and what I want to see is what I want to see again. And I want her to return to the normal life she has gained education. I want a teacher or doctor,” he said.
