IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WAR UMRAN There was a huge devastation in the neighborhood. There were about 13 14 wounded. There were many people on the street when bombardment was taking place. They were all running into the buildings. I didn't know what it was. When the buildings were demolished, they were all under the wreckage. I was interfering with these people because I was a first aid doctor. Then when I turned to the ambulance, I saw child inside. The child froze. Everywhere was in the blood. I learned the name at the mo- ment.His name was Umran.He was an innocent and pure child. Mustafa B. A. Zile Fen Lisesi,Turkey Petek S. O.
