A three-and-a-half-month-old baby in Turkey has been reunited with her mother after spending 128 hours trapped in the rubble of the country’s devastating earthquake in February. The reunion occurred 54 days after the baby, named Vetin Begdas, was rescued from a damaged building in the province of Hatay.

The Ministry of Family and Social Services in Turkey reported that the baby’s mother, Yasemin Begdas, was previously declared dead. However, after a DNA test proved their relationship, the Minister of Family and Social Services, Derya Yanik, helped reunite the mother and child.

The baby had been named Gizem, meaning “Mystery,” by medical authorities who took care of her after she was rescued. According to reports, the baby was in good health and spirits during the reunion.

Minister Yanik expressed her joy at being able to reunite the mother and child, saying that “one of the most priceless tasks in the world is reuniting a mother with her child. Being a part of that happiness meant a lot to us as well.”

The earthquake, which occurred on February 24, had a magnitude of 6.8 and claimed over 40 lives. The Turkish government and international organizations have been working to provide relief and support to those affected by the disaster.

The story of the baby’s rescue and reunion with her mother is a bright spot in the aftermath of the earthquake, providing hope and inspiration to people around the world. It serves as a reminder of the resilience of the human spirit and the importance of hope and perseverance in the face of adversity.
