Tonight, there's been an explosion at the NICU of one of the maternity clinics here. Three newborns dead, four with 70-80% of the skin burnt, four with "only" 30 to 50%. They have trouble identifying the babies; the bracelets are also burnt.
God bless them!

ETA: One week later; one of the babies died the following night, and another one a few nights later. There are six left to fight out of the eleven that were in the NICU at the time of the fire. All of them prematures, ranging from two pounds to five pounds. Two sets of twins, two boys and then a boy and a girl. The clinic is a national center for medically assisted human reproduction. Search for Adriana Iliescu.
They showed on TV a lot of things. The most striking one for me was a new father loading not a carseat in the backseat, but a tiny coffin he was holding under his arm, like a newspaper, in the carboot.
