The family of a young Syrian boy, whose photo has become a symbol of the suffering endured by civilians living under relentless bombardment in the country's brutal civil war, have been pulled alive from the rubble of their home.

When five-year-old Omran Daqneesh was filmed in an ambulance on wednesday evening,

covered in dust and blood from a devastating air strike, the fate of his parents and siblings was unclear.

He sat alone in dazed silence dwarfed by an orange chair, trying to wipe his hands clean on the plastic, in harrowing images that have provoked outrage across the world.
