Thousands of people on social media have now asked for details to adopt her.

The hospital manager, Khalid Attiah, says he has received dozens of calls from people all over the world wanting to adopt baby Aya.

The baby was the only member of her family to survive from the building collapse. Her umbilical cord was still connected to her mother. After rescuers dug her out, a female neighbor cut the cord, and she and others rushed with the baby to a children’s hospital where she has been kept on an incubator.

The doctor treating the baby, Dr. Hani Maarouf said, “The baby’s body temperature had fallen to 35 degrees Celsius (95 degrees Fahrenheit) and she had bruises, including a large one on her back, but she is in stable condition”

However, Monday’s earthquake killed hundreds across the area, and the toll was continually mounting with hundreds believed still lost under the rubble. The quake completely or partially toppled more than 730 buildings and damaged thousands more in the territory
