A picture of a wounded boy has become a symbol of the brutality of the Syrian conflict.
Omran Daqneesh, who is five years old, was one of five children injured in a Russian or Syrian air strike in Qaterji, a neighbourhood in Aleppo.
The photograph, which was sent by a doctor working in Aleppo, was shared thousands of times on social media.

Omran was taken to the M10 hospital – itself hit by air strikes – where doctors treated his head injury and cleaned the dust from his body. He was later released.
Around 12 other children, all under the age of 15, were treated yesterday.
