Soldiers Discover Abandoned Baby on Side of Road in Afghanistan
A newborn baby girl left abandoned on the side of the road in southern Afghanistan has been discovered by a group of Polish soldiers.
The soldiers came upon the baby, who they have named Pola, after Poland,
wrapped in a towel on Wednesday while they were checking a route near
their Waghez military base for safety, Defense Ministry spokesman Janusz Walczak told The Associated Press.
The group of soldiers was first suspicious when they discovered the
baby, as there is a risk of hidden roadside bombs across Afghanistan.
It is still unclear who left baby Pola on the side of the road. The AP
reported that there was no one found in a mile radius of where the baby
was discovered.
After the troops found her, she was brought to a medical center at their
base. The soldiers then bought the girl baby formula, a bottle and a
bib.
