In the war-torn streets of Damascus, an 11-year-old girl named Selina rises before dawn, not only to attend school, but also to support her family by reselling bread, a harsh reality that reflects the burden Syria's youngest generation bears after over a decade of conflict. Under the scorching sun on the streets of Damascus, 11-year-old Selina stands in line at a bread shop, waiting to buy flatbread -- the most common foodstuff for local people -- to sell for a sliver of profit, a routine she repeats daily to help feed her displaced family. Selina comes from Syria's eastern Deir ez-Zor province, and her hometown has been devastated by the war. Now living in the capital with her mother and four younger siblings, Selina's days start at 06:00 with school. After class, she heads straight to buy bread and then to the streets to sell. Despite her dedication, Selina said the hardest moments come not from physical exhaustion, but from how she's perceived by her peers. Her father hasn't been able to join the family in Damascus due to identification and permit issues, a lasting consequence of the conflict. But even in the shadow of war, Selina holds tightly to her hopes for the future. Now, more than a decade into Syria's conflict, children like Selina continue to shoulder adult burdens beneath the ruins of broken cities and dreams. On streets where laughter should echo, voices instead speak of hunger, illness, and loss. As the world marks the International Children's Day on June 1, it's a distant concept for Selina, but she still dreams of a day filled with toys, health, and, most of all, the reunion of her family.

I save 25 lira a day to buy her clothes. I hope one day we can all go back to our home in Deir ez-Zor. And I hope my father's diabetes can be treated."; [SHOTS OVERLAYING SOUNDBITE] 14.
