Bana al-Abed (Arabic: ???? ??????; born 7 June 2009) is a Syrian girl from Aleppo, Syria who, with assistance from her English-speaking mother, sent messages through Twitter documenting the siege of the city.
Most of these tweets have documented issues such as airstrikes, destruction, hunger, displacement, the prospect of her and her family's death, her longing for a peaceful childhood, the al-Bab district of eastern Aleppo, and her general calls for peace.Al-Abed's Twitter account, @AlabedBana, was created on September 24, 2016.
Twitter has verified al-Abed's account, indicating that "an account of public interest is authentic." The account has nearly 370,000 followers, and is managed by Bana's mother Fatemah.
On December 4, 2016, during the 17th Aleppo offensive, her account was taken down, but it was back up within two days and she has been tweeting since.
