Dr. Shammaa’s story was a dreadful one and her voicebroke as she told it. “I had to take the babies and put themin buckets of water to put out the flames,” she said. “WhenI took them out half an hour later, they were still burning.Even in the mortuary, they smouldered for hours.” Nextmorning, Amal Shammaa took the tiny corpses out of themortuary for burial. To her horror, they again burst intoflames.
