Collection launched for Romany family whose daughter is seriously injured after fire-bomb attack

A collection has begun to raise money for a Romany family whose daughter was seriously injured in a fire-bomb attack on their home last weekend. The appeal was launched by the regional authority in north Moravia, where the family live. The girl, who is two, is fighting for her life after suffering burns on 80 percent of her body, while both of her parents are also being treated in hospital for burns. Their one-storey house and its contents were destroyed in the attack, which took place in the town of Vítkov and is still being investigated.
