A baby girl delivered from a Palestinian woman who was killed in an Israeli airstrike in Rafah on Saturday has now died, according to her family.

The baby survived for five days, but died at the Emirati field hospital on Thursday. Her death was confirmed by her uncle, who spoke with CBC News late in the day.

The infant was delivered by via emergency caesarean 10 weeks premature and weighing three pounds, nine ounces on Saturday, in the aftermath of an attack in the southern Gaza city.

The blast killed her mother, who had been 30 weeks pregnant, as well as her father and older sister.
