While many people use social media to share their happy moments and special memories, a Syrian young girl and her mother use Twitter differently.

Living in East Aleppo, Bana Alabed, 7 year, and her mom, Fatemah, use their Twitter account to make the world aware of the gruesome situation in the city.

The account, launched last September and followed by more than 84K users, displays aspect of life in the city, under the siege and continuous deadly attacks.

It reveals the horrific experience Aleppo kids have to go through. Bana frequently livestreams the air strikes and shells that hit their city.

Sometimes, the danger is so close; it is rather impossible to record anything.

Airstrikes are not the only threat to Aleppo residents. Food shortage is another suffering:

And lack of medicine makes things even worse:

Bana’s school was destroyed by the Syrian regime’s airstrikes. It is not the only school anyway.

However, there are some moments of happiness

Despite everything, Bana’s mom is still optimistic:

“In the city of Aleppo, daily indiscriminate attacks on populated areas kill and injure scores of children.  Those who survive, are witnessing gruesome violence that no child should ever see, leaving them with lifelong physical and psychological scars.” UNICEF
