A member of the medical staff checks one of nine babies kept incubators, a day after they were born to a Malian woman at clinic in the western Moroccan city of Casablanca, on May 5, 2021. - A Malian woman gave birth to nonuplets in Morocco yesterday and all nine babies are "doing well", her government said, although Moroccan authorities had yet to confirm what would be an extremely rare case.
Mali's government flew 25-year-old Halima Cisse, a woman from the north of the poor West African state, to Morocco for better care on March 30. She was initially believed to have been carrying septuplets.

Una donna della provincia sudafricana del Gauteng ha dato alla luce 10 bambini, battendo il precedente record detenuto dalla maliana Halima Cissé che ha dato alla luce nove bambini in Marocco il mese scorso. Lo riportano i media sudafricani.
Gosiame Thamara Sithole, 37 anni, ha dato alla luce i suoi gemelli – due in più di quelli che i medici avevano precedentemente previsto in base agli accertamenti diagnostici – in un ospedale di Pretoria la scorsa notte, secondo quanto riferito alla testata dal marito Teboho Tsotetsi. A un primo controllo i bimbi e la mamma sembrano tutti in salute.
