This Twitter account will make you realise the horror of the Syrian conflict

A seven-year-old girl is giving a child's view of the Syrian conflict which has killed some of her friends and left her trapped with her family in Aleppo.

Bana al-Abed, who buries herself in her book to try and forget the bombs raining down all around her in Syria, has tweeted about the conflict from her family home in Syria.

Bana has aspirations to become a teacher, and her tweets are teaching people around the world about the horror of the war that is tearing the country apart.

Please stop killing us we need peace. I need peace to become a teacher #Aleppo pic.twitter.com/mYfF0Zmngv

She is among thousands trapped inside rebel-held Aleppo which Syrian government troops and Russia are bombing every day.

The bombings have left her fearing for her life.

Her 26-year-old mother Fatemah helps her to document the daily destruction, sometimes of hospitals, in an effort to alert the international community.

The #Aleppo hospital is today again bombed while it's repaired, dear world where do we go when my kids are injured?. - Fatemah

Her tweets have gone viral, but all she wants is peace.

Dear @potus, @putin @assad can you please work hard to stop the killing of Aleppo people before we are finished off? Bana, Aleppo.
